Hi, I’m Corben Woodhouse, an outgoing and friendly professional with six years of sales experience. I work well with people of all ages and I enjoy collaborating in a team. I understand products quickly and I’m always learning more to support my clients’ and team’s needs. In retail I’ve helped three separate businesses open and maintain new stores, bringing in new customers by cold calling and creating displays. I can have fun and be personable, but I am fully capable of dedicating myself to the task at hand to smash it out. Most recently, I worked as a Sales Consultant & Designer at Simply Wardrobes (May 2024 - September 2024), consulting with clients using their house plans to create a functional and good-looking wardrobe for everyday use. I used 2020 design software to draft plans and create 3D renders, and I built a Job Tracker spreadsheet that the entire office (admin/Installers) uses to track progress, KPIs and cold-call customers. I also recently took over overseeing website inquiries. Previously I advanced through roles at Lighting Direct and The Toolshed, developing sales, merchandising and leadership skills, and a strong knowledge of product ranges.
