Job description

Just think what you could achieve at Argos. Experience that customers love in an ever-changing retail environment. You’ll have a team to nurture and develop, with even more management opportunities on the horizon. Discover the rest of your career at Argos.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll create and lead a high-performing team and act as a true role model by seeing everything from the customer’s point of view. In that way, you’ll inspire, motivate, and empower everyone around you.

Your focus on the business itself will be just as strong. You’ll have total accountability for the store—driving performance, plans, and actions; celebrating success; and ensuring your teams are trained and developed to be the best they can be.

Who you are

A natural coach and communicator, you’ll support as strongly as you challenge and be as flexible as you expect your team to be. You can see the link between actions and the customer, and work to resolve issues quickly.

Your planning and organizing skills will be key—each Argos store is a big, fast-moving business in its own right, and you’ll look ahead to ensure you have all the resources you need. Every day, you’ll use your commercial acumen and creative approach to adapt and innovate.

How you’ll progress

There are many routes to develop your career. Prove yourself in this role, and we’ll encourage you to grow further. Whether you choose to stay with Argos or move across to develop in one of our Sainsbury’s stores or regions, you’ll have every opportunity to advance your career.

What we’ll give you

Salary will depend on your experience, store size, complexity, and location. Additionally, we offer a comprehensive range of benefits for our managers, including:

• Discount card: 10% off shopping at Sainsbury’s, Argos, Tu, and Habitat after four weeks. This increases to 15% at Sainsbury’s every Friday and Saturday, and 15% off at Argos every pay day.
• Pension: We’ll match 4% of your contributions, with potential for more if you change your pension plan.
• Free food and hot drinks: Provided for colleagues in all our stores.
• Holiday entitlement: Generous holiday allowance, maternity, and paternity leave.
• Sainsbury’s share scheme: Build up investments at discounted rates.
• Wellbeing support: Access to emotional support, counseling, legal, and financial advice.
• Colleague networks: Connect with like-minded people to help fulfill your potential.
• Cycle to Work scheme: Hire a bike and cycling equipment, saving on tax and NI.
• Special offers: On gym memberships, restaurants, holidays, retail vouchers, and more.
