RETAIL SALES - Stable Company since 1919!

Are you passionate about sales and customer service? Are you looking for an exciting opportunity where you can grow your career and have fun? Apply in person today 2749 Callaway DR, Bakersfield Ca 93312.

For over a century, the Urner family and Urner's have both been an integral part of Bakersfield, with contributions to our community and local charities. We are a family and employee owned business that has grown to one of the largest independent Major Home Appliance, Furniture and Mattress dealers in the area.

Because of unprecedented growth, we need to hire 2-3 new retail salespeople to join our team. Our strategic partnership with BrandSource, a national buying group gives us $17B in buying power. We’re big enough to compete against the “box stores” but small enough to provide that white glove service that customers demand and expect in Bakersfield.

Job Requirements

While previous sales experience in appliances, furniture or other big-ticket items is a plus, it is not required; what is essential for this role is an outgoing personality along with customer service experience and willingness to learn. Basically, if you have the energy to succeed and are committed to providing first class customer service, this is the position for you!

Additional Requirements:

Energetic, self-motivated sales professional with exceptional interpersonal, listening and communication skills.
High School graduate, or equivalent
Ability to work flexible schedule, days, evenings, weekends and holidays
Pleasant and polite manners when dealing with co-workers as well as customers
Familiarity with basic sales techniques
