The Role

Gibbs & Dandy - Customer Service Advisor (Merchant Trainee)

Based: Worksop

Salary: GBP14,560 - 18,720

Hello and thank you for your interest in our role!

Our branches are busy places, with lots going on inside and out. On our apprenticeship programme, you will join us as a Merchant Trainee. In this role you will work in a range of our departments such as the yard and the sales counter, getting to grips with our business, our customers and our products.

Working for Gibbs & Dandy, no two days are the same. You will have the opportunity to support and advise customers on our extensive building products and service range - no matter how big or small their project is! You will take pride in being an important part of the Gibbs & Dandy mission to be 'The Most Trusted Merchant in Town'

We've been in the industry for over 175 years so we can proudly say we know a thing or two about providing our customers with the tools and materials they need to complete their building projects. The Gibbs & Dandy team are a family, we value, respect and occasionally have the odd joke at the expense of each other - but what family doesn't? All this makes us who we are - a close knit team on a mission. But we couldn't give our customers a service they can trust without our people, and this is where you step in.

So, what are we looking for?

A genuine enthusiasm for dealing with customers, and a 'customer 1st' attitude
The ability to build strong relationships internally and externally
Accuracy and attention to detail
A positive team player
An interest in learning more about the world of a Builders Merchant!

What will we offer you?

As a Merchant Trainee, we'll support you to undertake your Level 2 Trade Business Apprenticeship.

As part of Saint-Gobain Group, here at Gibbs & Dandy we also offer:

A competitive salary
A discretionary bonus scheme
Opportunities for career progression and development
31 days' holiday (including bank holidays), plus the option to buy or sell additional days
A defined contribution pension scheme
Great discounts across high street chains, online stores and holiday agents
Saint-Gobain Life Assurance Scheme
Access to a leading health and wellbeing portal
Sound like the job for you? Apply today to join us on our journey to be the most trusted merchant in town!

The world of work is changing, and at Saint-Gobain we are open to new ways of working in order to attract talented people to our business. We understand that everyone has different needs and commitments. Therefore, we are very open to discuss any flexible requirement or need that you may have for this role. We can't guarantee to meet all requests for flexibility when we are recruiting. But, we promise to listen
