Benchmarx Kitchens and Joinery have an opportunity for you to join our family as a Showroom 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.


As a Showroom Apprentice, you’ll be at the heart of the business playing a vital role in supporting the day-to-day runnings of a successful showroom. The main element of this role consists of working in our warehouse, organising and taking ownership of our stock. There will be an opportunity for you to support with deliveries too, so a driving license would be desirable. 

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 

Location: Benchmarx Kitchens & Joinery, 9-10 Inkerman Street, Low Southwick, Sunderland, SR5 2BN

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. 

For 15 years Benchmarx have offered a high quality range of kitchens and joinery products backed up by excellent service.  But what really sets us apart is a company culture of being great people to work with, whether as colleagues or with our valued customers.  With over 150 branches UK wide, we are proud to be part of Travis Perkins.

You be you, it makes us, us.
