Our client is looking for an Assistant Manager to help shape a store that’s as vibrant and community-focused as the products they sell.
As Assistant Manager, you will support the Store Manager in the day-to-day operations of the store and lead the team to deliver an exceptional customer experience. You'll play a vital role in driving commercial success, coaching the team, and ensuring every aspect of the store reflects their values.

- Ensure stock availability, accurate ordering, waste reduction, and effective promotional displays.
- Manage freshness control, product presentation, and date-check compliance.
- Lead by example to deliver outstanding customer service at every touchpoint.
- Ensure swift resolution of customer feedback and concerns.
- Coordinate rotas, manage annual leave, and conduct team briefings.
- Promote a culture of continuous improvement and recognition.
- Ensure the store is prepared for seasonal and promotional events.

Your need to be:

- Energetic, adaptable, and resilient with a positive attitude.
- Passionate about people, service, and helping others grow.
- A clear and confident communicator who thrives on collaboration.
- Customer-focused, solution-driven, and always looking to improve.
- A natural role model who embraces change and inspires others to do the same.
- Retail management or supervisory experience (desirable).

This role is paying £27,000 - £29,000 per annum. The role is working on a 40-hour week, 5-day rota. You must be available to work one day of a weekend and between 7am – 8pm.

Other benefits include 30% discount, length of service benefits, pension scheme and 28 days holiday per year.
