Dr.Martens Edinburgh Store Seasonal Sales Assistant Opportunity

Dr.Martens Edinburgh store is getting ready for the festive rush and we need your help.

We are looking for flexible part-time Seasonal Sales Assistants to join our team at our Edinburgh store for the lead up and during the busy Christmas period for 8 hours a week.

Our Seasonal Sales Assistants are the backbone of our store during the holiday season. Without them, we would not be able to provide the exceptional customer service that sets us apart.

Our Seasonal Sales Assistants take their love for Dr.Martens and turn it into a memorable customer experience, ensuring that our customers find exactly what they are looking for and leave our stores with a smile. If you are passionate about Dr.Martens and have an outgoing personality, this could be the perfect role for you this season!

The Gig

  • Use your passion for Dr.Martens to drive sales and meet sales targets to help the store achieve its overall sales goal during this fast-paced and busy sales period.
  • Infuse your unique personality into the customer experience and create an outstanding shopping experience for everyone who walks through our doors. Inspire!
  • Efficiently handle transactions at the till in accordance with operating procedures.
  • Follow operating procedures, such as handling deliveries and ensuring timely replenishment.
  • Show empathy, work well within a team, and provide support as needed.

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.
