Corben Woodhouse

I consulted with clients using their house plans to create a functional and good-looking wardrobe for everyday use. I used 2020 design software to draw the plans and create 3D renders digitally. Additionally, I created a Job Tracker spreadsheet that the whole office (admin/Installers) uses to track progress, KPIs & cold call customers. I also recently took over overseeing website inquiries.

I was recruited to assume a key holder role at Lighting Direct's flagship store. I honed in on team management skills and quickly transitioned to the Assistant Manager position. During my time here, I facilitated the recruitment and training of two new team members. Through this experience, I refined my sales, merchandising, cold calling, and managerial abilities, enabling me to establish impactful product displays, foster a strong team dynamic, and consistently drive sales growth.

Joining The Toolshed's newest store, as one of the initial three team members, I held a pivotal role in establishing the store's presence, cultivating relationships with local businesses, and broadening our customer base. Over 18 months, we expanded to a team of five and developed a loyal customer following. Mastering product knowledge was crucial, given the diverse range of over 20 product categories. Midway through my time here, I assumed the role of assistant manager temporarily; until I left to join LD.
