Natural Health & Supplements Specialist

Penzance - 3-5 days a week
Applications close: 6th April 2026
Start date: Mid–late April

 

​​The role

Archie Browns has long been a place where people come not just to shop, but to seek trusted advice, meaningful conversations and support around natural health.

 

We are looking for someone with a strong background in nutrition or natural health to take on a key role within our Penzance shop as our Natural Health & Supplements Specialist.

This role focuses on overseeing and developing our supplements offering, helping customers navigate the world of natural health with confidence, and ensuring the supplement space remains well organised, well stocked and aligned with current thinking in natural health.

You will become a trusted voice for customers seeking guidance, while also supporting the wider team in building their knowledge and confidence in this area.

This role is ideal for someone who already has formal training in nutrition or natural health — or is currently studying in this field — and would enjoy working within a busy community shop where conversations about wellbeing happen every day.

 

A Unique Opportunity for Practitioners

 

For practitioners such as nutritional therapists, naturopathic nutritionists or students currently training in these fields, this role offers a rare opportunity to gain valuable face-to-face experience with a wide demographic of customers interested in natural health.

Working at Archie Browns provides daily interaction with people actively seeking guidance on supplements, diet and wellbeing.

There is also the potential to build relationships within the community and grow a client base organically, as practitioners are welcome to make their services visible to customers who may be interested in deeper one-to-one support.
