Showroom assistant
at Minoli
Minoli is hiring a showroom assistant to join its London team.
Specialising in ceramics for over 60 years, Minoli has supplied beautiful floor, wall and mosaic tiles to a diverse range of clients, each with very specific needs.
The capable showroom host/assistant will enjoy meeting clients and playing a role in ensuring the showroom runs efficiently and effectively for the many daily visitors, which include interior designers, architects and property professionals. Given the profile of the Marylebone and Mayfair area, and the high-end residential and professional clientele we attract from across London, some experience of premium customer service or luxury goods retail may be an advantage – but far from essential.

- meet and greet existing and prospective clients, customers of clients and suppliers
- introduce the clients to the showroom concept and the products on display
- help with the arrangement of the showroom in order to ensure an immaculate showroom facility
- assist the manager and director by arranging appointments, taking notes of client choices etc.
- occasionally prepare and serve refreshments for showroom visitors and meetings
- maintain a database of showroom visits / clients and keep the list up to date
- maintain a visitor/diary log and monitor the daily agenda and appointments
- be pro-active in ensuring that the showroom gallery and the meeting spaces are welcoming to visitors
Key skills and competencies of the successful candidate:
- a professional attitude towards existing and prospective clients, customers of clients and suppliers
- work as a member of the team, predominantly with the showroom manager and the directors
- to be proficient (competent) in the use of all main Microsoft Windows programmes and control a database
- to possess truly excellent communication skills, for both clients and work colleagues
- to have an interest in interior design and architecture
- to have enthusiasm for the products being presented, with an ability to learn quickly about the company and its product ranges
