Brick departments that train newcomers

A Brick store sells sofas, mattresses, appliances and TVs under one roof. Behind the showroom sit a warehouse and a fleet of delivery trucks, and each team hires on its own.

🛋️

Showroom sales

Associates walk shoppers through living rooms and bedroom sets, then write the order.

🛏️

Mattress stores

Smaller Brick Mattress Store locations focus on sleep products only.

🔌

Appliances and electronics

Staff explain fridge sizes, laundry pairs and TV features.

📦

Warehouse

Crews unload containers, check boxes for damage and stage each day’s orders.

🚚

Home delivery

Two-person teams carry furniture upstairs and connect appliances.

☎️

Service desk

Agents book deliveries and sort out damaged or late items.

How commission shapes a Brick paycheque

Showroom pay is built on sales, so a strong month can beat most retail jobs and a quiet one cannot. Warehouse staff are paid by the hour, while delivery pay can follow the value of each load.

💡 Ask how the top-up is repaid: some salespeople say minimum-wage top-ups are later taken back from strong commission weeks, so get the draw rules in writing before accepting a sales offer.

Licences, lifting and sales skills The Brick wants

Showroom jobs reward people who can talk to strangers all day. Back-of-house jobs are physical, and some need a driving record.

🗣️ Selling confidence matters more than furniture knowledge; product training comes after hiring.
🪪 Clean driver’s licence for anyone behind the wheel of a delivery truck.
💪 Two-person lifts of sofas, dressers and washers, often up narrow stairs.
📅 Weekends and evenings, when most families shop for furniture.

Brick hiring, interview to shadow shift

01

Careers centre

Company stores and warehouses post their openings in one online job board.

02

Store interview

A sales or warehouse manager asks about availability and past customer work.

03

Learning the catalogue

New hires learn the products, the order system and safe lifting.

04

Shadow shifts

You work beside an experienced colleague before taking customers alone.

Flexible part-time and on-call shifts exist alongside full-time roles, and full-time staff get a health plan. Employees also mention steep staff discounts on furniture.

⚠️ Earnings swing with the calendar: sales staff describe strong months during big promotions and thin ones in between, and distribution centre workers report long days of heavy lifting with small yearly raises.

Company stores and franchise partners

LFL Group, which also owns Leon’s, runs most Brick stores directly. In smaller towns, local franchise partners own the store and do their own hiring, as with three South Shore Nova Scotia stores that opened on the same day.

The chain now stretches coast to coast, from St. John’s to British Columbia. Its head office and a new shared distribution centre are both in Edmonton.
