Glassworks London is an independent women’s fashion retailer founded in 2010, with design-led boutiques and a fast-moving product range refreshed regularly with new fashion. Our stores are not passive shop units. They are places where customers discover product, receive styling advice, build relationships with the team and experience Glassworks as a living brand.
THE ROLE
We are looking for a Senior Style Advisor to join our fashion retail team. This role is for a commercially driven seller who enjoys personal targets, high-value baskets, repeat customers, styling, product and active shop-floor selling. You will help customers discover product, build outfits, use the fitting room confidently and enjoy their time in store.
A Senior Style Advisor is not a mini-manager. The role exists to raise the commercial standard on the shop floor through strong personal selling, fitting-room conversion, basket-building, VIP/clienteling activity and visible example-setting. You should be able to sell confidently, support newer team members, notice standards issues and help keep the store visually strong and commercially active.
This is a higher-expectation sales role. We are looking for someone who wants to be one of the strongest sellers in the store, understands personal sales targets, enjoys building customer relationships and is motivated by converting footfall into revenue. If you are looking mainly for a quiet retail support role focused on tidying, transactions or general store standards, this will not be the right fit.
