We're looking for an ambitious, commercially driven Sales Leader to lead a high-performing luxury retail concession team in Southampton.

If you're a natural people person with a big personality, a passion for sales, and a track record of smashing targets, we want to hear from you.
You'll be based on a luxury retail concession, actively approaching customers, generating interest, demonstrating products, and coaching your team to do the same. This role is perfect for someone from a telecoms, direct sales, premium retail, furniture, recruitment, or other highly target-driven sales background.
