At Cancer Research UK, we exist to beat cancer.
We are professionals with purpose, beating cancer every day. But we need to go much further and much faster. That’s why we’re looking for someone talented, someone determined, someone like you.
We’re looking for a motivating superstore assistant manager to join Cancer Research UK’s trading team. You’ll be acting as an ambassador for Cancer Research UK, supporting the superstore manager and your team to maximise on sales and fundraising targets. Your superstore will be a place where your community gets to meet our people, understand our brand, and see some of the great things we do.

In a lively, vibrant working environment, you’ll discover something new every day, whether it’s a new high street trend, a new community network or a talent you never knew you had.
You’ll also be surrounded by people who are as dedicated to beating cancer as you are.

What will I be doing?
  • Supporting the superstore manager in guiding, inspiring and engaging a large team of paid staff and volunteers. This includes recruitment, retention and development of a diverse superstore team.
  • Taking responsibility for the commercial running of the superstore including display and merchandising, stock management and generation, maintaining shop standards, store layout, sales and income.
  • Working alongside the superstore manager to meet agreed targets for donated stock, cash, benchmark gift aid, average selling price, sell through and stock processing.
  • Assisting with the processing systems that allow for the movement and distribution of large volumes of donations including across other Cancer Research UK shops, superstores and eCommerce.
  • Leading by example and providing excellent customer and supporter service.
  • Creating relationships with your local community and Cancer Research UK colleagues to generate community engagement and additional income and stock.
  • Supporting the shop manager in the organisation and delivery of creative fundraising events for your store to achieve fundraising targets.
  • Deputising for the superstore manager in their absence.

What skills will I need?
  • Commercial awareness with previous success working with sales and profit targets.
  • Experience of managing and inspiring a large and diverse team of people.
  • Comfort working within targets and motivating others to achieve those targets.
  • The ability to multi-task in a lively high volume retail environment with large volumes of stock.
  • Creativity and a desire to seek out opportunities for innovative ways of working.
  • The ability to create relationships and communicate well.

Our retail teams cover the needs of their stores by working on a rota basis. Whilst a level of flexibility is needed to meet the needs of the business, we don’t forget that you have a life outside of work too.

In return, we make sure you are supported by a generous benefits package, a wide range of career and personal development opportunities and high-quality tools, policies and processes to enable you to do your job well.
