Our reputation as a leading provider of flutes and woodwind instruments in the UK makes us a go-to destination for flute and woodwind players, and our unique location in South London attracts many international customers.

Whether it be in-person, by phone or by email, you must be able to engage with new customers by offering excellent, personalised advice in choosing the right instrument or accessories, as well as being able to cultivate our ongoing relationships with our loyal customer base.

Administration will also form an important part of your duties, and the ideal candidate will also be confident navigating diverse IT systems, such as when processing finance applications and approvals, as well as creating insurance valuations and adding listings to our website.

We are increasingly attending flute events, and there will be the possibility of travelling within the UK and internationally to flute days, courses, music trade shows and conferences. Working in a small team, you will have the flexibility to carry out other tasks as required, as well as to communicate effectively with colleagues. An eye for detail and the ability to work swiftly and accurately under pressure are essential.

In return we will provide all the necessary training, access to a NEST pensions scheme and a generous staff discount scheme.
