About: Walker Slater was founded in 1989 in the Scottish Highlands before later settling Edinburgh’s Old Town, which is where its headquarters are today. Despite now being over 30 years old, the company has not deviated from its mission, which is to champion the heritage and sustainability of tweed and woollen fabrics through contemporary and elegant clothing.

Established by Frances Slater and Paul Walker, who helms the brand as creative director, the company started out with humble beginnings of supplying remote communities with hard-wearing classic clothing to combat the harsh elements. It quickly transcended its roots in the Highlands by moving south and opening outposts in Edinburgh, Glasgow and London. Within each store, quaint and charming interiors and passionate staff harmoniously cultivate Walker Slater’s own, unique world and provide customers with an authentic taste of Scotland.

Walker Slater is looking for an experienced full-time Womenswear Sales Assistant to support the shop floor team in growing our business in the heart of the fashion capital, Covent Garden, London.

The Sales Assistant is responsible for maintaining the presentation of the shop floor and representing the brand to our customers, offering an excellent customer service experience.  Other duties include inventory replenishment, visual merchandising and alteration pinning service. The store has built up a loyal following since 2015 and needs an energetic team member ready to work hard and contribute to the Walker Slater Womenswear project.

Qualifications:

  • At least 1 year's experience in retail 
  • Ability to build and maintain relationships with customers and team members.
  • A confident individual who would describe themselves as a fast learner.
  • Ability to multitask and prioritise responsibilities while maintaining a high attention to detail

  • Be action-oriented and solution-driven to achieve results
