About Homewood
Homewood designs and handcrafts premium furniture in Howick, KZN. Our Spotted Gum timber comes from invasive alien trees, so every piece helps clear local waterways and creates value from the wood. We supply leading South African retailers, export internationally and run our own showrooms. Our Piggly Wiggly showroom sits at the heart of the Midlands Meander, and we’re looking for the person who will make it shine.

The role

• Welcome visitors and turn browsers into buyers. Many are tourists and weekenders from Durban and Joburg.
• Guide customers through our designs, timbers, weaves and finishes, and help them choose the right piece for their space.
• Prepare quotes, take orders and custom sizing requests, and follow up until the sale closes.
• Keep the showroom styled, stocked and looking its best.
• Build a client book and keep in touch with past customers for repeat and referral sales.
• Capture leads and orders accurately in our systems, and meet monthly sales targets.

What we’re looking for

• At least 2 years of sales experience, ideally in furniture, décor, interiors, design or premium retail.
• A natural, warm salesperson with confidence, energy and a genuine love of beautiful things.
• A strong closer who follows up and takes ownership of targets.
• Excellent spoken and written English. isiZulu or Afrikaans is a plus.
• Comfortable with email, WhatsApp and basic computer systems.
• A valid driver’s licence and own reliable transport.
• Lives in the Midlands (Howick, Hilton, Curry’s Post or Nottingham Road). This is non-negotiable.

Why join us

• A beautiful working environment in one of the Meander’s busiest stops.
