Sales Vacancies Update

Many thanks to all who applied for our upcoming vacancies, the deadline has now passed and we can accept no more applicants at this time. We received well over 300 applications which was more than we expected to say the least!

Unfortunately due to the sheer volume we will not be able to personally respond to every applicant but we'd like to thank everyone who applied, it's been very difficult narrowing it down!

Sales Assistant Vacancies For 2012

We are looking for two full-time Sales Assistants to join the Rattle And Drum Music team in the New Year. One of the positions will be primarily based on the Drum floor, one on the Guitar floor. Knowledge relating to the relevant department is important but not essential. Some cross-over knowledge would be looked on very favourably.

Retail/sales experience would be advantageous but again not essential; your personal skills are the most important thing, we can teach you the rest!

Your role will mainly be shop-floor based, dealing with customers, giving advice and completing sales. You will also assist in the day to day management of the shop including display work, pricing, stocking and cleaning etc.

All applications should be sent to Matt Pearson by post at our shop address or by email to matt@rattleanddrum.com in the form of a CV plus covering letter. Applications must reach us no later than 14 December. Interviews will take place in the second half of December with employment commencing in early January.

Anyone who has previously sent a CV to us on a speculative basis is very welcome to apply but please note you must re-apply in the format described above.
