Retail Mattress Sales Associate
Lexington and Georgetown, KY
Mattress Overstock is hiring a full-time Retail Mattress Sales Associate to float between our Lexington and Georgetown stores. This is a sales role, not a cashier-only job. Mattress stores do not get a nonstop line of customers all day. The right person understands that the few customers who do come in are high-intent shoppers, and the job is to greet them well, ask good questions, build trust, explain options clearly, and close business.

- 40 hours per week
- Overtime available when the business needs it and it is approved
- Vendor bonuses and spiffs may be available
- Health insurance available
- Real advancement path into a commissioned Sales Manager role for strong performers
Why this can be a great opportunity:
- This is a good fit for someone who wants to learn retail sales, become confident with customers, and grow into a higher-earning sales position.
- Our best people are dependable, competitive in a healthy way, coachable, and comfortable working independently inside a showroom.
- There is quiet time between customers. We are fine with employees using appropriate downtime productively once store responsibilities are handled, but when a customer walks in, that customer gets immediate attention.
- This role rewards someone who can manage themselves without needing constant supervision.
What you will do:
- Work scheduled shifts at our Lexington and Georgetown stores
- Greet customers quickly and make them feel comfortable
- Learn our mattress brands, product differences, financing options, and promotions
- Ask questions, recommend the right mattress, and guide customers toward a purchase
- Follow up with leads, quotes, and undecided shoppers
- Keep the showroom clean, organized, and ready for customers

- Communicate clearly with managers and teammates
- Help maintain displays and assist with showroom tasks as needed
What we need from you:
- Reliable transportation to both Lexington and Georgetown
- Strong attendance and punctuality
- Ability to work a full-time retail schedule, including weekends when scheduled
- Comfortable working alone in a store for parts of the day
- A real interest in selling, earning, and improving
- Coachable attitude and willingness to learn product knowledge
- Professional communication with customers and coworkers
- Ability to stand, walk the showroom, and help with normal retail showroom duties
- This job is important to the rest of the team. We run a lean schedule, so when someone is scheduled, we depend on them to be there.
- If you want a role where showing up, learning, and closing sales can lead to more responsibility and better earning potential, we would like to talk with you.
