Summary

Help us make a difference to people with life-limiting illnesses…

At The Myton Hospices, we provide specialist care and support for people with life-limiting illnesses, and their loved ones, from the point of diagnosis to end of life. We are a much-loved and well supported charity, at the heart of our community. We have three hospices, a range of community services, and 25 charity shops in Coventry and Warwickshire.

Come and join our growing team, in a rewarding role in charity retail, and make a real difference. We’re looking for two Assistant Managers for our Leamington Spa charity shops.

As an Assistant Shop Manager, a typical day would include:

- Supervising and supporting volunteers
- Generating high-quality stock donations
- Providing excellent customer service and shopping experiences
- Maximising sales through Gift Aid and our Weekly Lottery

There are two positions available: 1 day (7.5 hours) per week in our Bedford Street branch, and 2 days (15 hours) per week in our Warwick Street branch.

We would love to hear from you if you have:

- Retail experience
- Experience of leading a team
- Confidence in calculating figures and working with financial targets
- The right to work in the UK (we cannot provide sponsorship)

This role requires an enhanced DBS check including the children’s barred list, because it involves supervising volunteers under the age of 16. We’ll arrange and cover the cost of this check if you’re offered the role.

Other roles you may have experience of could include: Retail Assistant; Store Manager; Floor Manager; Deputy Manager; Team Leader.

We are committed to building an inclusive workplace and encourage everyone to bring their true selves to work. However you identify, and whatever background you bring with you, we welcome you to apply. If there are any adjustments that would help improve your experience with Myton, we encourage you to share this with us.

We particularly welcome applications from people with disabilities and from ethnic minorities, who are currently under-represented in our hospices. We also believe our interview process should be inclusive and transparent. If there is anything missing, or a way we can improve, please do let us know.

Myton is an amazing place to work, where the role every person plays has a positive impact for our patients, living with terminal illnesses, and their families. In recognition of this, we offer a wide range of employee benefits including:

- Increased employer pension contribution
- 28 days annual leave + bank holidays, increasing with long service
- Winter savings club
- Discount schemes including Blue Light Card
- Death in service benefit
- Employee wellbeing programme
- Colleague Support Service: confidential financial, legal & mental health support
- Cycle to work scheme
- Free feminine hygiene products
- 24/7 GP appointments
