Job Description
The Role (AKA: The Person Who Makes Everything Run Smoothly)\n
As our Retail Store Manager, you’ll be the heartbeat of the shop — leading the team, shaping the customer experience, and keeping the store running like a well-oiled machine.
\nYou’ll be hands-on, people-focused, commercially switched-on, and not afraid to roll up your sleeves.
What You’ll Be Doing\n- \n
- Leading, motivating, and developing a small, friendly team \n
- Keeping stock levels sharp and supplier relationships strong \n
- Making sure the store looks great, feels welcoming, and runs safely \n
- Driving sales through smart merchandising and local promotions \n
- Handling customer queries, bespoke orders, and the occasional curveball \n
- Owning health & safety and compliance \n
- Reporting on KPIs and helping shape future store strategy \n
- \n
- Proven retail management experience (DIY/hardware/trade = big bonus) \n
- Confident leadership and people-management skills \n
- Commercial awareness and a practical, problem-solving mindset \n
- Strong communication and customer service instincts \n
- Comfortable with EPOS systems and basic financial reporting \n
- A genuine interest in DIY, home improvement, or tools (we love that stuff) \n
- \n
- Competitive salary + bonus scheme \n
- Staff discount on everything (dangerous if you love tools) \n
- Training and development opportunities \n
- A supportive, community-focused team who actually enjoy working together \n
If you’re a natural leader who loves retail, thrives in a hands-on environment, and gets a buzz from helping customers solve problems, we’d love to hear from you.
