Are you an experienced sales professional looking for your next career move?
Truly Bridal Boutique is looking for an ambitious, highly motivated and commercially minded Senior Sales & Operations Executive to join our team in Naas.
This is a full-time, senior customer-facing role for someone with a minimum of 5 years' full-time professional experience, including experience in a senior sales, supervisory, team leader or similar role.

Sales & Customer Experience
Part of this role will involve personally conducting private bridal and occasionwear appointments.

You will:

- Work towards individual and team targets and KPIs
- Identify opportunities to enhance the customer journey

- Beauty and cosmetics
- Pharmacy
- Jewellery
- Spas and wellness
- High-end hospitality
- Other premium or customer-focused businesses
What matters most is your ability to connect with people, understand their needs, sell confidently and create an exceptional customer experience.

- Supporting the day-to-day running of the boutique
- Taking ownership of agreed operational processes

- Preparing dresses, stock and customer orders
- Coordinating customer orders and deliveries
- Liaising with suppliers

- Maintaining accurate records and systems
- Supporting administrative processes and ensuring tasks are completed efficiently
- Identifying ways to improve systems, processes and the customer experience
- Supporting management with operational priorities and projects
Senior Responsibilities
We are looking for someone who naturally takes ownership rather than waiting to be told what to do.
You will be expected to:
- Lead by example on the shop floor
- Support and encourage other members of the sales team
- Maintain high standards across sales, customer service and operations
- Take responsibility for completing tasks to a high standard and within deadlines
- Identify problems and proactively find solutions
