Store Manager Peterborough, England
Job description
Store Manager – Nisa Broad St, Whittlesey
KeshCo is a family-owned company founded in Whittlesey, we have multiple sites across Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. We have an extremely flat business structure, so you will be reporting directly to the owners. As a business, we are always looking for opportunities to grow and we believe our teams are vital to the success of the business. As one of our managers, you will be coached, supported, and empowered to lead your teams and run your store as if it were your own, after all, you will be part of the KeshCo family!
Who can be our store manager?
We allow our managers a high degree of autonomy to run their stores, so we need someone who is ready to get stuck in and work alongside colleagues on the shop floor, leading by example and inspiring your team by coaching, supporting, and empowering them to achieve great results. We believe a great manager should also be able to remove themselves from their everyday routine and identify opportunities for improvement and growth (not just the business, but themselves and the team too!) identifying issues before they become problematic and being able to look at the store through the lens of the customer.
You'll understand how the success of your store fits into the bigger picture of KeshCo's purpose and be able to make commercial decisions to actively trade your store. All of our stores are an active part of the communities they serve, so the ability to put the customer first is essential.
What skills and experience do you need?
· Retail management experience is preferrable, we welcome other industry management experience too, as long as it is relevant.
· Someone who is a proven people leader with experience in and developing successful teams.
· Have a commercial understanding of how to stand out against the local competition, using entrepreneurial flair to actively trade the store for continuous growth.
· Hard-working and flexible, with the ability to work both as part of the store team and on your own initiative.
· IT & Numerical proficiency, data analysis, and Excel skills are essential.
· Committed to continually improving store performance and standards with attention to detail and ensuring the highest standards of cleanliness.
· Enjoys working in a fast-paced team environment and with a willingness to embrace new challenges.
What can we offer?
As a Store Manager you will be working 40 hours a week over 5 days, one of which should be on the weekend. We expect you to work a variety of shifts to fully understand how your store operates and to be able to work alongside all of your team. As a business we operate bank holidays as well, so you will be expected to contribute as part of the management team rota.
We don't want our managers to work every hour under the sun. An effective manager should be able to build up their team and trust in them to run the store in their absence but equally know when the store needs all the stops pulling out to deliver a great customer experience.
