Temporary Retail Sales Associate

Hey! We’re Kukoon, and we’re excited to announce that we are hiring a Temporary, Part-Time Retail Sales Associate for our Flagship store on Boucher Crescent, Belfast. 

If you’re an interiors lover with a passion for great customer experiences, we’d love to meet you. This is your chance to be part of something fresh, fun, and full of energy, helping us bring our gorgeous rugs to life in-store.

We’re already the largest independent rug retailer in the UK and Ireland, but this pop-up is a whole new chapter. Want to come along for the ride?

The Role:

We are hiring an 8h Temporary Retail Sales Associate to help connect our customers with their perfect rug. We want to hear from you if you enjoy coming to work to have fun, love providing excellent customer service and have a passion for all things interiors. 

What you’ll be doing at Kukoon:

• Be a welcoming, helpful, and knowledgeable face in-store, sharing genuine interior advice that inspires our customers.


• Providing the best customer service and interior product knowledge. This can be in person, over the phone or via email. 


• Keep our store looking its best with visual displays that showcase the Kukoon brand and help customers imagine their dream spaces.


• Support smooth operations by following policies and keeping inventory accurate and up to date.


• Working with a great team to smash sales targets, increase customer footfall and create memorable experiences.


• Opening and closing of the store (key holders must be over 18).

To join our vibrant and growing business, here’s what we’re looking for:

• Some customer service experience under your belt - maybe in retail, maybe elsewhere - but definitely with real people, face-to-face or online.


• A genuine interest in fashion, homewares and trends - after all that's what we do best! Selling rugs can be so rewarding. 


• Curiosity and drive to continually improve processes and customer experiences. Our customers mean the world to us, and we never stop looking for ways to wow them.


• Comfort with basic systems like inventory or point of sale tills - nothing too fancy, just enough to keep things ticking.


• A positive, can-do attitude. You take pride in what you do, and you bring energy that lifts the people around you.

What we offer in return: 

• Joining the UK’s top online interior company, with aspirations to be the name you think of when you think of rugs!


• Annual leave that increases with length of service


• Enhanced Maternity Pay


• Generous staff discount - and we mean HUGE!


• Great working culture that values people who work hard, achieve results and like to have a bit of craic doing it

This role requires flexibility across the week including weekends.

Store opening hours are:

Monday - Saturday: 09:30 – 17:30

Sunday: 13:00 – 17:00
