Keyholders (the senior Sales Associate or supervisor) at UNITED COLORS OF BENETTON are truly "Sales Specialists" - a far cry from the typical "Sales Clerk" that you find at most retailers. Our Sales Associates take pride in their abilities to connect with a client, create a relationship, and build a wardrobe by conveying their own love of fashion and their excitement for the incredible Italian product selection that we carry in our stores. These are individuals who are hungry for success and want to make a name for themselves in this business.
Keyholders take it to the next level by overseeing the store operations (opening/closing, running breaks, communicating goals, driving sales, etc.) in the absence of their Store Manager or Assistant Manager.
