Our Warehouse Manager will work alongside the management team to deliver key objectives and ensure that the store efficiently manages stock in and out to generate sales. You will react to fast-changing situations quickly and positively by creating a safe & productive working environment.

Each day is different in this varied, fast-paced, and hands-on role. Due to the volume of collections, deliveries, and donations, it is physically demanding yet most rewarding as you play a part in helping to fund life-saving research.

What are we looking for?

• You will be an experienced warehouse or stockroom team leader or supervisor in retail, hospitality, or another customer-focused industry.
• Desirable but not essential to have stock management experience.
• Motivated, proactive, and commercially driven to lead a team.
• Strong organisational and leadership skills.
• Thrives working in a hands-on, fast-paced environment.
• Results-driven, resilient, and able to adapt to the needs of the business.

What’s important to us?

At the British Heart Foundation (BHF), we offer a huge range of new and used quality furniture, clothing, jewellery, and more, available in store and online.

Since 1961, British Heart Foundation has been at the forefront of research that has helped to halve annual deaths from cardiovascular disease in the UK. But our work is needed more than ever.

In addition to raising funds for the BHF, we connect with our local communities and help reduce clothing and furniture waste across the UK. With over 700 stores, we make a significant environmental impact by preventing around 70,000 tonnes of unwanted items from going to landfill every year. We receive 1.6 million items donated to our home stores and 9.8 million bags of donated items, and we will continue to build upon our reuse agenda in the years to come.

Our Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Strategy, Igniting Change, along with our internal EDI group, Kaleidoscope, and a growing number of employee network groups (our Affinity Groups), help us create an environment where all our colleagues and volunteers can succeed.

Why join the BHF?

We have a strong culture of internal progression and will actively support you to develop your career.

Our generous staff benefits include:

• 38 days annual leave (plus the option to buy and sell leave)
• Holistic support leave of up to 10 additional days off each year
