Sales Manager
Location: Newlife SuperStore, Hemlock Way Cannock
Hours: 40 (5 in 7 days)
Salary: £24,918
As one of the UK’s leading charities providing essential specialist equipment to disabled and terminally ill children, Newlife is
dedicated to making life better - for the families we serve, and for the people who help us to make that happen. Through grants
and emergency equipment loans, we ensure children get the vital equipment they need, when they need it, while our free nurse
helpline offers crucial support and information – as well as a listening ear. Our campaigns help to give disabled children and
their families a voice, even being instrumental in changing laws to benefit the families we serve. And we support adults with
additional needs with volunteering and employment opportunities, providing a means for career development.
The Opportunity:
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Sales Manager / Team Leader looking for their next progression, to make a real
difference.
We are not like any other charity. All stock in our stores is new and donated by retailers, allowing us to create a heaven for
bargain hunters and savvy fashionista shoppers who want designer and high street products at discount prices.
The Sales Manager role in Newlife is unique, it allows you to create the extraordinary, by driving sales in your store to, in
turn generate money to support Disabled Children and their families. No two days are the same and due to the nature of the
business, the product type can quickly change so you have to be a fast thinker and swift on your feet to change the layout and
merchandising to drive sales.
The organisation culture is based on a clear Mission, Vision and Values (MVV) which you will drive throughout your team, by role
modelling the behaviours at all times. We expect the Sales Manager to take personal ownership for developing and supporting the
culture in their store which is reflective of the MVV. As an experienced retail manager, you will be motivated by results and have
the drive for continuous improvement. In return, we can offer the environment for you to be your best and realise your potential.
What we are looking for:
You must be commercially minded; people orientated and deliver operational excellence, putting the customer at the centre of
everything.
You will need to have previous retail management experience and be able to work alongside and operate effectively with the Store
Manager and store team. You will maximise retail sales and profit through the effective day to day management of a sales team that
will be made up of both paid employees and volunteers, live and breathe KPI’s, use your creative skills and imagination to
merchandise the product to a high standard, ensuring the delivery of excellent customer service.
You will also need to be flexible in your approach to work to cover additional hours where required and be willing to cover at
other Newlife stores on occasion to meet needs of the business.
The Benefits:
You will receive 28 days holiday, health cash plan membership, team member store discount and pension scheme membership…. and of
course have the satisfaction of knowing that the worthwhile work you do is making a real difference!
