Working here - retail
Engaging our customers
When our customers want to see, touch and get to know our products and get the very best advice, they come into our 24 stores and five trade counters.
We play a key role in developing strong customer relationships, as well as making sales (around £40 million each year). That means calling customers to tell them about our latest in-store products, as well as guiding them when they come into our stores. It’s about understanding their needs, pointing them to the right products and spotting sales opportunities to make sure they leave our stores happy.

Lissy Wild, Customer Operations Manager
What attracted me to Nisbets were the amazing benefits, fantastic training and opportunities to progress and learn from others. I’ve been encouraged to try new things and had some amazing opportunities to get involved with my own store and truly make a change to the company as a whole. I’m lucky to work for a company that’s recognised my talents and hard work, and given me the opportunity to progress into a manager role. It’s rare to feel so valued and encouraged with a company that really wants to listen to my ideas and opinions.

Anthony Fernandes, Machines Sales Manager, London
I joined Nisbets when they took over my previous company in 2010. I could see they were a fast-growing company and I thought I had a lot to offer them and that we could be successful together. Our store on Shaftesbury Avenue in central London is the busiest Nisbets store and I enjoy the challenge of sourcing and selling the right equipment for the customer’s job, at the price that’s right for their budget. We have a fantastic team and every day’s different – it’s very exciting.
