Hear what your new colleagues value

” We have a good working environment, there is always a friendly colleague ready to help me. When I have something private that requires a change of working hours, it can always be done, so that flexibility is nice to have. You will feel you have a new family, we are fond-owned and you can clearly feel it, in illness, maternity, bereavement – you will be treated as a family member ”

” I am proud that we in Lyngby are Fog's flagship, you will also be proud. I have been in other groups where it is business and only business – as you know we are fond-owned and share our resources, that feeling is also nice – You will experience that we are ‘A team’ even though we are a large business, everyone helps everyone. I look forward to collaborating with you ”

  • Team Leader Leasing Nicklas Hobel

Welcome to the team – this is how your daily life will be with us

You have the daily responsibility for the management of the sales team in the builder’s center. You will have 26 colleagues in the team, of which 10 are hourly paid. You exercise visible leadership by leading from the front, setting the direction and ensuring that the builder’s center is always sales-ready. You closely monitor results, translate key figures into concrete actions and drive sales development in close collaboration with your team.

A typical workweek starts when you feel like it 😉, we have room to show great flexibility with regard to planning your working hours.

You will have a workweek where your tasks are distributed 50/50 between customer contact and relationship work on the floor – and leadership and administrative tasks that keep the builder’s center running.

Your main tasks

  • Drive sales and ensure high service through visible leadership on the floor.
  • Ensure a sales-ready store – campaigns, stock handling, merchandising and order are always top.
  • Advise and create upselling for both professional craftsmen and private customers.
  • Put staffing plans into Timeplan and ensure optimal staffing during opening hours, including vacation planning.
  • Plan and run mini fairs and morning demos in close collaboration with suppliers.

In addition, performance reviews, sparring on strategic development with management and act as general deputy for the builder’s center manager.

You could become our new deputy manager if you

  • Have a minimum of 5 years of broad professional sales experience in our product areas.
  • Have the human capacity and the personality that makes you a good leader – and we look forward to developing you further.
  • Are outgoing in the right way, create calm around you and have natural overview

”Team player, humble and results-oriented”

These three qualities are highlighted by your new leader, builder’s center manager Michael Henriksen, who wanted them in his new partner and deputy at Fog group’s flagship builder’s center

Is it you? Then Michael will also show you high trust and back you up with competent sparring.

You succeed in the position when

  • You can feel that our customer experiences are at a very high level
  • We experience you as proactive and with plenty of drive
  • You know you contribute to high job satisfaction among your colleagues

We offer you

  • Proper terms and a salary package negotiated according to qualifications
  • Company summer house, staff purchase scheme and personal development according to your wishes
  • A working environment where cooperation, teamwork and humor are important ingredients
  • Focus on top-class customer service in a great working environment
  • KRUNIKA’s Safety/Confidence Package, which contributes to a safe start
