Interaction Recruitment are recruiting for an experienced Showroom Sales Advisor to join a well-established, family-run mobility and furniture business in Huntingdon.

This is a permanent vacancy due to retirement & represents a great opportunity to join a friendly, established team within one of the region's largest mobility showrooms.

This isn't a traditional till-based retail role. Customers are often making considered purchases of £1,000-£3,000 or more, so we are looking for somebody who can take the time to understand what a customer needs, build strong product knowledge and confidently recommend the right solution.

You'll need to enjoy selling, but this is very much consultative rather than pushy sales. Product knowledge, listening skills & the ability to identify opportunities to recommend additional or alternative products are key.

Based within the Huntingdon showroom, you'll work across a wide range of mobility, furniture and independent-living products including:

• Mobility scooters
• Manual and powered wheelchairs
• Rise and recliner chairs
• Beds and furniture
• Stairlifts
• Daily living and mobility aids

You'll spend much of your time speaking directly with customers, demonstrating products & helping them make the right purchasing decision.

Your responsibilities will also include:

• Welcoming customers into the showroom and understanding their requirements
• Providing knowledgeable advice and demonstrating products
• Building strong product knowledge through full training
• Upselling and recommending suitable additional products where appropriate
• Handling telephone, email and online customer enquiries
• Following up with customers and providing after‑sales support
• Processing sales and associated paperwork
• Stock replenishment and general showroom housekeeping
• Assisting with deliveries and movement of products
• Supporting online orders, returns and customer service queries when required
• Helping with marketing and other general duties across the business

As a family-run business, everyone plays their part.

The showroom is arranged across three levels, so there is a physical element to the position. You may need to move or reposition furniture & products when demonstrating them to customers.

The business also operates a busy online retail and warehouse operation from the same location. Although this has its own dedicated team, you may occasionally help with online orders, returns, stock or other warehouse-related tasks when needed.

It's therefore a great role for somebody who likes variety & has a genuine “get stuck in” attitude.

We're particularly interested in hearing from candidates with experience in:

• Retail sales
• Furniture sales
• Showroom sales
• Mobility or healthcare products
• Customer service
• Care or support work with strong customer-facing skills
• Other consultative or higher-value sales environments

A background in mobility products isn't essential as full product traini
