Part-Time Sales and Workshop Assistant/Engraver

The Trophy & Print Shop is based in Norton, Malton, with shops in both Norton and York. We are the largest specialist trophy retailer in North Yorkshire, selling directly to the local area from our long established shops and also nationally through our websites.

We are looking for someone to join the friendly team. We now have a part-time vacancy based at our Norton shop, initially for around 15 hours per week (Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays), plus further hours may be possible during our busy periods – April/May/June and October/November.

There may also be the possibility of extra hours to provide holiday cover and there is a real chance that this could lead to more hours (possibly working at our York shop too) for the right candidate.

Some flexibility in the hours may be possible i.e. to fit in with childcare/school times.
Also we can be flexible during school holidays if extra time off is needed.

Requirements
The role involves working in a team and dealing with customers, advising and guiding them through the ordering process, so a friendly manner, good communication skills and a keen eye for detail are essential.
