Designate Store Manager to cover Reading / Amersham / High Wycombe and Maidenhead area's

At Toolstation, we're not just interested in what you can bring to us today. We're also interested in developing your talents, so you can grow with our business and become one of our leaders of tomorrow.

You'll work across different stores within the region building up valuable experience. You'll need to be flexible to move to locations where we need the most support and as such you'll be a true 'hands on' team player, building critical management skills in a field based multi-site role.

Delivering an outstanding customer proposition. This isn't your average retail role. It's much more than an average Store Manager job. Of course, you'll manage the Branch, but you'll also be serving customers, checking deliveries, picking items from the warehouse and stocking shelves. And it can be hot in the summer and cold in the winter. But if you take real pride in leading and motivating a team to achieve great things, our customers will notice and love us all the more for it.

This is a real development opportunity and you might wish to embark upon a Level 5 apprenticeship and/or undertake our management development courses to refine your skills.

What you'll do

Day-to-day

Delivering great service. Ensuring your team provides a great customer experience, delivering sales through service.

Mucking in. Helping the team get the job done. Checking and unpacking deliveries, opening and closing the branch, stocking shelves, cleaning the branch and putting orders together.

Inspiring. Encouraging a positive mindset, building a culture of feedback, praise and recognition.

Asking questions and building relationships. Making sure your team get the development they need, supporting future business growth and succession. Making sure your customers leave the branch with everything that they need for the job.

Leading. From the front, coaching, motivating and engaging your team and creating a great place to work where engagement is key.
Building a fun working environment. Maintaining our great product availability and high branch standards, while making sure that your branch is somewhere everyone loves coming to work
