Showroom Designer / Manager

Job Type: Full-time, Permanent

Location: Didcot

Most showroom roles focus on design, customer service and keeping the space looking right. This one is built around ownership.

At UKPS Didcot, you’ll run the showroom as a business. You’ll have real ownership over how it performs and directly benefit from that performance through a profit share model that rewards commercial thinking, not just activity.

You’ll still be designing bathrooms, guiding customers and managing projects from enquiry through to order. But you’ll also be responsible for how the showroom grows. That means building relationships with local installers, driving new business, increasing average order values and making decisions that improve margin.

You’ll have the autonomy to shape the showroom, influence product ranges, control how you engage customers and build a local presence that keeps you front-of-mind for our clients.

We operate as part of the UK’s largest independent network of plumbing and heating merchants with over 310 sites nationwide. Each site runs with real autonomy, you’re not just following a script or waiting for instructions from head office. You’re making commercial decisions, influencing stock, working with suppliers and getting involved in anything that drives sales and margin.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Take responsibility for the day-to-day performance of the bathroom showroom
• Work with both retail customers and trade professionals from initial enquiry through to completed sale
• Build strong relationships with local installers to generate consistent referral business
• Drive new business through local marketing, outreach and repeat customer engagement
• Influence pricing, product selection and supplier relationships to maximise margin
• Maintain a high-quality showroom environment that inspires customers and supports sales

If you want a showroom role where you can take full ownership, drive performance and see a direct financial return from it, this is it.

What We’re Looking For

We are open to varying levels of experience for this role. You could be a Showroom Manager looking for more or simply have some Bathroom product knowledge or design experience, looking for the opportunity to grow. This role suits someone who understands that a showroom isn’t just about design, it’s about sales, relationships and commercial performance.

You’ll bring:

• Experience within a bathroom, kitchen, or a similar showroom environment
• Strong sales ability
• A commercial mindset with confidence around pricing, suppliers and performance
• The ability to build relationships with both retail customers and trade professionals
• A proactive approach to generating business, not just waiting for footfall
• CAD experience (e.g. Virtual Worlds) is useful but not essential
• A full UK driving licence

What You’ll Get

• Competitive salary + profit share scheme
• A direct link between showroom performance and your earnings
• Full autonomy to run and shape your showroom
• Support from a wider independent merchant network
• Long-term progression opportunities within a growing group
