About Vintage Threads
Since 2016 we have built Vintage Threads into one of the most recognised names in curated vintage. We run stores in Soho, Covent Garden, Selfridges and Amsterdam alongside a growing online business and our own Rework studio. Our customers come to us for pieces they cannot find anywhere else. Our aim to give them a first class service and give them an experience that goes beyond their expectations.
The role
This is not a standard shop floor position. As Senior Sales Advisor you will deliver excellent day to day retail service across our Covent Garden and Soho stores, while also helping to expand and improve the relationship with some of our number one customers. Along with bringing new ones into the business, increasing the relationships with stylists and personal shoppers.
Key responsibilities
Clienteling and VIP development
- Build, own and grow a personal client book across both stores
- Develop the VIP network in Covent Garden and Soho, identifying and nurturing high potential customers
- Host private and personal shopping appointments, curating edits tailored to each client
- Reconnect lapsed clients and turn one time buyers into repeat customers
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
