Assistant Store Manager

Assistant Store Manager

This is a great job opportunity for an Assistant Manager to join the UK's largest decorating merchant network, at their store in Bedford. As the home of a huge range of world class brands, this is the place that millions of people turn to for all their decorating needs.

As the Assistant Store Manager, you'll play a key role in helping professional decorators, contractors and DIY enthusiasts fall in love with the great range of services and products that are sold in your retail store. To do this, you'll inspire and motivate your team; manage stock levels; ensure high visual merchandising standards; and continually look for ways to create a positive impression when customers visit. You'll also support with budgeting, forecasting, health and safety compliance, and maximising sales wherever possible.

We're looking for a retail professional that's eager to take on more responsibility and develop their retail management skills, so they can lead their own store in the future. That means you'll be results-orientated, commercially-focused, comfortable operating retail processes and systems, and great at coaching your team.

You'll also have a real eye for detail; setting high operating standards and delivering outstanding service levels that will encourage customers to shop with us time after time.

This is a permanent role, where you'll be working 40 hours per week.
