Dundee - Part time - 30 HOURS - £12.71 per hour + excellent benefits package


At Crown Paints, our Sales Assistants are the heartbeat of the store — helping customers bring projects to life, building relationships with local trades, and creating exceptional customer experiences.

Are you our new Sales Assistant?

We’re looking for a Sales Assistant / Driver to join our Dundee store team. You will be:

  • Delivering brilliant customer service in store and over the phone
  • Mixing and tinting paint to customer requirements
  • Driving the store van to deliver stock locally
  • Processing sales and handling POS transactions
  • Supporting stock control, deliveries, and store standards
  • Building relationships with customers and opening new trade accounts

Our customers range from DIYers working on weekend projects to professional decorators and builders who rely on us every day. A key part of your role will be to identify potential new customers, establish positive relationships and open customer accounts regularly.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
