Our client has over 160 shops across the North West and Yorkshire. They are a growing brand with exciting expansion plans to open further new shops and cafes across their ever growing footprint. They provide a friendly and fast paced service in high traffic locations serving the local community; serving great tasting snacks, breakfasts, sandwiches, pies, pasties, sausage rolls, pastries, cakes and drinks at excellent value prices.

Due to this growth, they are now looking for passionate and motivated Retail Managers and Assistant Managers to join them for the opening of a brand new shop and cafe in Blackpool.

If you are experienced, energetic, customer focused and passionate about delivering results then this could be the role for you.

As a Shop Manager reporting to the Area Sales Manager, you will work with your team to deliver an outstanding customer experience whilst building great relationships with your team and customers. You will ensure the success of the shop by making sure your team consistently demonstrates excellent selling techniques; utilising excellent ‘front of house’ skills, upselling products and maintaining the displays and counters so that they look attractive to customers. You will work with your team to ensure sales targets are hit and to help grow the store to increase turnover.

You will be responsible for team development; motivating and managing your team effectively, recruiting and inducting new team members and addressing and rectifying any under-performance. Other responsibilities will include managing day to day store operations; actively striving to improve the operation and implement advice/suggestions as appropriate as well as being responsible for hygiene, health and safety compliance and training matters.

In either role you will be commercially minded and ideally have a background in food retail/customer service and retail management as well as experience in profit protection and stock control. An ability to manage your time effectively whilst working under pressure is also very important for this role.

Our client is ideally looking for candidates who also have Café management experience as this new shop will be a standard shop that will also have a Café.

As these shops are extremely fast paced and high volume, you will need to be highly proactive, organised and ‘hands on’ in your role as Shop Manager/Assistant Manager.

In return, our client can offer you a competitive salary, commission earning potential, excellent training and the opportunity to progress your career.
