One of Harrogate’s most prominent fashion retailers is on the search for two new members of staff.
Jules B, the multi-award winning designer wear brand, is recruiting for the positions of assistant manager and a sales advisor to work in its impressive store on Cambridge Crescent, opposite Bettys tearooms.
Julian Blades, who founded the company together with his wife Rhona in 1985, said:
“We are looking for people who have a friendly personality and the ability to communicate and make our customers feel comfortable while they indulge in a bit of retail therapy.
“It really is a most rewarding job when you can empower people and make them feel good about themselves. It’s very social and the clients we attract are extremely nice, interesting people.
“You will be working in a lovely store , selling beautiful clothes to very nice people…. What’s not to like?”
In addition to a competitive salary, the successful candidates (once they have passed their probation) will be eligible for a clothing allowance and substantial staff discounts. He added:
“It’s very important to have happy staff. That is what we are known for. So we do everything we can to make working for us fun and enjoyable.”
Jules B is renowned for its incredible offer of some of the most desirable labels in the market such as Holland Cooper, Rixo, Haley Menzies, Self Portrait, Oska, and Lurdes Bergada.
We have two different demographics of customer explains Julian, one is a younger fashion forward woman who enjoys more directional collections which are all situated on our ground floor while on the second floor we attract a more contemporary type of customer who appreciates less structured designs.
The company has five retail stores located in Jesmond, Kendal and now Harrogate as well as a highly successful website.
Jules B is the only independent to have won the “Best Independent Fashion Retailer in Britain” award three times and in 2020 Julian and Rhona were awarded the “Drapers Lifetime Achievement Award” at a gala ceremony in London. Julian added:
“Shopping has to be an experience and the atmosphere in all our stores is created by happy and passionate staff.
“So if you want a job that gives you a huge amount of satisfaction and enjoyment we would love to meet you!”
