About SwissTimepieces

SwissTimepieces began in 2017 as a passion project and has grown into a trusted luxury watch specialist.

Our growth has been built on reputation, meticulous attention to detail, and a genuinely client-first approach. Every transaction matters. Every relationship counts.

We exist to curate exceptional timepieces that celebrate life’s milestones and become part of our clients’ stories, today and for generations to come.

We’re now entering an exciting new phase of growth. We’re looking for people who want to build something meaningful — not just fill a role, but contribute to a business with high standards, clear ambition, and long-term plans.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a Junior Sales Executive — someone ambitious, commercially minded, and eager to build a long-term career in luxury sales.

You do not need extensive luxury experience. You do need drive, professionalism, and a genuine desire to learn.

This role is designed as a development pathway into a fully-fledged Sales Executive position. You will be trained, supported, and gradually given ownership of client relationships and transactions as your capability grows.

This is not simply a retail role. It is the start of a career in premium, consultative sales within a nationally recognised specialist business.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Managing enquiries from clients looking to buy or sell luxury watches

• Speaking confidently with clients via phone, email, and in-person appointments

• Supporting senior team members on live transactions

• Preparing and presenting quotations clearly and professionally

• Building trusted, long-term client relationships

• Maintaining accurate CRM records and sales documentation

• Assisting with stock listings and pricing discussions

• Helping create short-form video and social content

• Gradually taking ownership of deals as your experience develops

• Working towards clear performance targets

Who This Role Would Suit

• Someone at the start of their sales career

• A confident communicator who enjoys speaking with people

• An individual currently in retail, hospitality, customer service, admin, or telesales who wants progression

• Someone ambitious who wants development and responsibility

• A reliable, organised individual who takes pride in standards

• Someone comfortable being visible and occasionally appearing on camera

• An interest in luxury products, watches, or premium brands is beneficial — but attitude matters more

What We’re Looking For

• Strong communication skills

• Professionalism and attention to detail

• High levels of personal accountability

• Willingness to learn and take feedback

• A proactive, positive work ethic

• Motivation to hit targets and continuously improve

Previous sales experience is welcome but not essential.

What You’ll Get

• Salary: £24,000 – £26,000 depending on experience

• Bonus: Up to 10% performance bonus + annual Christmas bonus

• Holiday: 29 days including bank holidays

• Hours: 35-hour week (Mon–Fri) with alternate Saturdays (those weeks are 33.5 hours with a weekday off)

• Pension: Workplace pension scheme

• Development: Clear pathway into a Sales Executive role

• Training: Ongoing coaching in consultative sales, negotiation, and product expertise, plus structured industry training (including NAJ-accredited programmes) as part of your progression

Why Join SwissTimepieces?

SwissTimepieces is not a corporate retailer. We are an independent, reputation-built luxury specialist where standards genuinely matter.

You will work closely with high-value timepieces, serious clients, and a team that expects professionalism, accountability, and commercial focus.

In return, you’ll receive real responsibility, structured development, and the opportunity to build a long-term career within a growing business. As we grow, so do the people within it.

If you’re motivated by progression, pride in your work, and being part of something that is still building — this is the environment for you.

How to Apply

Please apply via our short application process, which includes a couple of quick assessments designed to help us — and you — determine whether it’s the right fit. You’ll also receive your own behavioural profile to keep.

We are actively interviewing and aiming to appoint immediately. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
