As the Retail Sales Manager, you’ll be the driving force behind the success of your AGA showroom. Your passion for excellence, leadership, and storytelling will inspire both your customers and your team. Championing outstanding customer service, ensuring that every visitor feels inspired, understood, and valued you’ll:

• Lead by example as a true sales expert, coaching your team to confidently guide customers through our product ranges and heritage
• Plan and deliver initiatives that continuously elevate customer service and sales performance
• Organise and host exclusive in-store cooking demonstrations with our resident chef and bespoke one-to-one experiences with customers
• Drive sales performance through maximising every customer interaction with effective upselling and add-on sales
• Implement business and marketing plans, to drive footfall and conversion
• Ensure the showroom reflects the AGA brand, beautifully merchandised and inviting

• Create a positive, engaging environment, motivating and empowering your team

Experience

You’ll be someone who can bring passion and professionalism to the role with:

• Proven sales success within a customer facing sales environment

• Team management, coaching, and performance development
• A natural ability to engage, inspire, and build trust with customers
• Confident in handling sales data, systems, and administrative processes
• Commercially astute, with an understanding of market trends and competitor activity
• A keen eye for presentation, detail, and brand representation
