Are you sales driven or have an interest in sales, along with a creative flair? Do you like working with a variety of customers and building relationships? We have the perfect opportunity for an ambitious individual to kick start a new career. 

Benchmarx Kitchens and Joinery have an opportunity for you to join our family as a Kitchen Design Apprentice. Previous industry knowledge is not essential for this role, all we look for is an individual who is customer focused and the passion to take ownership of your own success. In return, we will provide the training and support you need to become an expert Kitchen Designer, and help our trade customers turn individual living spaces into unique, kitchen realities. 

As a Kitchen Design Apprentice, you’ll be at the heart of the business playing a vital role in delivering sales & profit towards the success of the branch. You will work closely with customers listening carefully to what they want and understand their needs. You’ll visit customers’ homes or building sites, draw up inspirational designs on CAD and present them to the customers. Whilst offering competitive quotes, you will use your negotiation skills to maximise sales for further growth on margin. Being a target driven role, you will manage and seek out your own sales leads.

Hours of work: Our working hours also offer a great work life balance - your working week will be Monday to Friday  7.30am - 5.00pm and every other Saturday morning 8.00am-12.00pm 

Salary: Circa £20,000 dependant on experience + 22 days holiday plus bank holidays + discounts and access to health and well being advice and support. 

Location: This position will be based within your host branch but you will be required to spend time within other branches within your region. This will require the successful candidate to have a full UK driving licence, and be flexible to travel to different locations

How will we support you?
The 12 month apprenticeship programme teaches you to be a great kitchen designer within our business, pulling together CAD training, inspiration design and product knowledge training to provide our valued customers with the best possible service. Upon completion, you will be rewarded with a Level 3 Apprenticeship in Furniture Design. 

Our Apprenticeships are focused on your development and factor study time into your working week, so you can achieve your qualification without affecting your work-life balance. We provide you with a fantastic support network through; 1:1 coaching, mentoring and technical and skills training to enable you to progress your career with us. Along the way, our experienced team will provide you with plenty of support to ensure you get the best out of your Apprenticeship. And it doesn’t have to end here, as we have a suite of Apprenticeship programmes that can support you to continue to develop your career with us, all the way up to the Boardroom. 

What’s in it for you?
At Benchmarx, we have strong family values and believe in getting the right work/life balance, meaning you’ll only work during the week and 4 hours every other Saturday. We make sure that hard work is rewarded and as an inclusive, family environment we want every team member to be recognised for the work they do. 

We’ll also equip you with a benefits package that grows as you grow with the company:

  • Contributory pension scheme
  • Colleague discount across a variety of Group businesses including; special discounts across our Trade Merchanting businesses
