Jewellery Sales Assistant jobs

About Temple of the Sun

Temple of the Sun is a Byron Bay-born jewellery brand renowned for its modern-ancient design philosophy, ethical craftsmanship, and timeless symbolism. Our Paddington boutique is a refined, high-touch retail environment where genuine connection, confidence, and considered service sit at the heart of everything we do.

We are entering an exciting phase of growth and are looking to welcome a passionate Casual Sales Consultant to our Paddington team.

The Role

As a Casual Sales Consultant at Temple of the Sun, you will be the heart of the in-store experience — warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely present with every customer who walks through our door. You bring a deep appreciation for jewellery and the luxury retail space, and you understand instinctively how to make a customer feel at ease, inspired, and connected to the pieces in front of them.

You will share the story behind our collections with confidence and authenticity, contributing to a sales environment where service is never transactional — it is always personal.

Key Responsibilities

Customer Experience

• Deliver a consistently high-level, personalised service experience aligned with the Temple of the Sun brand.
• Build genuine rapport with every customer, ensuring they feel welcomed, valued, and inspired.
• Share the story, craftsmanship, and meaning behind our collections with confidence and passion.
• Contribute to long-term customer relationships that reflect the warmth and integrity of our brand.

Sales & Brand Representation

• Support the achievement of individual and store sales targets through exceptional, relationship-driven service.
• Present product knowledge with storytelling, confidence, and meticulous attention to detail.
• Uphold visual merchandising and brand presentation standards at all times.

Store Operations

• Process sales transactions accurately and efficiently.
• Assist with stock handling, replenishment, and general store upkeep.
• Work collaboratively with the team to ensure smooth daily operations and a beautiful store environment.
• Please note the roster will include weekend and public holiday work.

About You

To be successful in this role, you will bring:

• Experience in jewellery retail is essential. We will also consider candidates with a background in a premium or luxury retail environment who bring a genuine passion for the category.
• A minimum of 2 years’ experience in a customer-facing role within jewellery or the broader luxury industry.
• A polished, warm, and confident presence on the sales floor.
• Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to read the room — adapting your tone and approach to each individual customer.
• A genuine appreciation for craftsmanship, design, and the meaning behind the pieces you represent.
• Availability to work casual shifts, including weekends and peak trade periods.
• Proficiency in Mandarin is highly desirable and considered a significant advantage.

The Ideal Candidate

You love jewellery for what it represents. You take pride in beautiful things and beautiful service. You bring with you real experience from the jewellery or luxury world — an understanding of the discerning customer, the considered purchase, and the kind of quiet confidence that makes high-end retail feel effortless. You’re the kind of person who makes every customer feel like the only person in the room.

Why Join Temple of the Sun

• Be part of an exceptional, independently loved Australian jewellery brand with a strong identity and deeply loyal following.
• Work in a beautifully curated Paddington boutique that is a genuine pleasure to spend time in.
• Join a warm, supportive, and values-driven team that prioritises growth, care, and excellence.
• Generous staff discounts on our full jewellery collection.
• Real opportunity to grow with the brand as we expand.
