Profile
For the role of Senior Sales Associate, we are seeking a candidate who combines extensive retail expertise with a genuine passion for luxury and excellence in customer service. The ideal candidate demonstrates a mature and refined approach to client engagement, serving as a trusted ambassador of the brand and contributing to the overall excellence of the boutique experience.
A professional who is able to illustrate the exceptional quality of the craftsmanship and materials with confidence and credibility, guiding clients through the brand's distinctive style and seasonal collections while maintaining the discretion, elegance and authenticity that characterise the company philosophy. In addition, the Senior Sales Associate acts as a point of reference within the boutique, sharing best practices and contributing positively to team development and customer satisfaction.
Role Responsibilities
As a key representative of the brand, the Senior Sales Associate is entrusted with delivering an elevated customer experience while embodying the company philosophy through every client interaction. The role requires a deep understanding of the values, craftsmanship and heritage that connect the work carried out in Solomeo to the experience offered within the boutique.
The quality we aspire to provide is expressed first through personal presentation and conduct within the store, reflecting the standards of casual elegance and signature luxury that distinguish the brand. Equally important is the ability to establish meaningful and lasting relationships with clients, offering a highly personalised service and acting as a trusted advisor throughout their journey with the brand.
The Senior Sales Associate is expected to maintain an advanced level of product knowledge, understanding not only the features of the collections but also the philosophy, materials and craftsmanship behind each creation. This expertise enables the individual to confidently guide clients through the collection, styling proposals and purchasing decisions, creating a memorable and distinctive experience aligned with the brand's standards.

The role involves identifying commercial opportunities, supporting customer retention strategies and contributing to the growth of the boutique's client portfolio.
The position also requires collaboration with the Store Management team in ensuring the highest operational standards across the boutique. This includes supporting the coordination of daily activities, assisting with visual merchandising execution, maintaining impeccable product presentation, and contributing to stock organisation and inventory accuracy.
