Are you looking for an opportunity to progress in store management?

We are looking for an Assistant Store Manager to join our fashion store team in Spalding, so we could be the perfect match!

You'll join the team on a 9-month fixed-term contract covering family leave, working 28 hours a week.

What Does This Role Involve

As an Assistant Store Manager, you support the Store Manager with the day-to-day running of the store and take full responsibility in their absence.

Inspiring and supporting staff and volunteers to deliver an excellent customer journey that reflects our values, our Assistant Store Managers contribute towards the success of their stores by:

• Ensuring the highest standard of customer service
• Achieving targets
• Maintaining a high standard of visual merchandising
• Maximising sales through physical and digital channels
• Supporting with the recruitment and development of volunteers
• Achieving expectations within campaign activities
• Working with the manager to generate stock

Our stores are fast-paced and trade 7 days a week, which means we require flexibility from our store teams to work weekends and bank holidays on a rota basis.

Due to the volume of donations, it can be physically demanding at times, yet most rewarding as you play a part in helping to fund life-saving research.

What Are We Looking For

• Experience in a customer-facing role
• Supervisory experience
• Commercially driven to encourage new ideas
• Inclusive approach to developing teams
• Passion for delivering exceptional customer service and achieving the highest retail standards
• Results driven but with a recognition of the right result, right way.

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.

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 stores and 9.8 million bags of donated items, and we aim to expand our reuse initiatives in the future.

Everything we do comes back to funding lifesaving research for all heart and circulatory conditions. We are more ambitious and determined than ever because the cures and treatments we need are in sight. You could be part of getting us there sooner!

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.
