Commission\-Based Retail Sales Executive

Job type: Full\-time, permanent

Location: Gadcet, Romford (in\-store)

Pay: Mainly commission\-based, with guaranteed basic pay plus uncapped commission

Schedule: Day shifts, including weekends

Important! Please Read Before Applying

*This is a mainly commission\-based sales role. Guaranteed basic pay is provided, but the main earning opportunity comes from commission on your individual sales performance.*

We are specifically looking for an experienced salesperson who is motivated by commission, confident working towards targets and comfortable with performance\-linked earnings.

*This is not a general retail assistant position.* You must already know how to approach customers, close sales, upsell and cross\-sell. Simply processing purchases or waiting for customers to ask for assistance is not the focus of this role.

About the Role

Gadcet is looking for a proactive, confident and results\-driven salesperson to join our Romford store.

You will engage customers, understand their requirements and recommend suitable products. You will be expected to actively identify sales opportunities, handle objections and turn customer conversations into completed purchases.

We provide training on our products, systems and processes, but you must bring established sales skills and be able to sell confidently with minimal basic sales training.

What You’ll Be Selling

Our range includes smartphones, laptops, tablets, gaming consoles, TVs, audio products, accessories and other consumer electronics.

Technology sales experience is beneficial but not essential. *Proven sales ability, upselling experience and a strong motivation to earn commission are more important.*

Key Responsibilities

  • Proactively approach customers: Start conversations, build rapport and understand their needs and budget.

  • Close sales: Explain product benefits clearly, handle questions and objections, and confidently guide customers towards a purchase.

  • Upsell and cross\-sell: Recommend suitable higher\-specification products, upgrades, accessories and complementary items.

  • Achieve targets: Take ownership of your individual sales results and contribute to the store’s overall performance.

  • Provide excellent service: Make honest, relevant recommendations that help customers choose the right products.

  • Support the store: Maintain product knowledge, replenish stock, keep the shop floor organised and assist with general store duties.
Who We’re Looking For

You must have:

  • At least 2 years of previous sales experience, with a proven ability to close sales.

  • Demonstrable experience in upselling and cross\-selling.

  • A strong motivation to earn commission and achieve individual sales targets.

  • Confidence approaching customers, building rapport and handling objections.

  • The ability to work independently and stay productive without constant supervision.

  • Availability to work weekends as part of your normal working week.
*Experience in commission\-based mobile phone sales, telecommunications, consumer electronics, furniture, automotive or other target\-driven, face\-to\-face sales roles would be particularly relevant.*

Pay \& Commission

*Guaranteed basic pay \+ uncapped commission.*

The pay structure is mainly commission\-based, so your overall earnings will depend heavily on your individual sales performance. There is no cap on commission, giving successful salespeople the opportunity to increase their earnings through their results.

Individual and store sales performance will be reviewed regularly.

Employee and store discounts, Uncapped commission, Flexible Schedule, Team Days\-out.
