About you...

We are looking for someone who is (or has been) an experienced store manager within a retail environment. A can-do spirit is essential in retail so this is a non-negotiable for us! We want candidates who understand the financial side of business - previous KPI exposure and working to targets is a must. We also want people who know how to recruit great team members - you spot potential and can coach & mentor individuals to bring that out.

About us...

Wickes is more than just the nation's favourite DIY store. It's a place where we'll ask for your ideas, listen to your opinions and value the contributions you make. Chances are you've never experienced anything quite like our culture. All our colleagues come from different backgrounds, but what we all have in common is a determination to succeed and a passion for being the best we can be. If that sounds like you, we'll make you feel right at home.
