As a General Manager at one of our stores, you’ll take the lead on creating an experience our customers love. Every decision you make will be with the customer and your team in mind. You’re the one who brings the store together, living and breathing our values, and acting as your team’s go-to for questions, support, and development.

• Creating an environment where colleagues feel inspired and able to progress.
• Exploring and implementing new ways of working to benefit your store.
• Leading the store strategy to stay ahead in the market.
• Managing the overall commercial performance of your store.

Bring your knowledge, leadership skills, and openness to change. Our business moves at pace, and you’ll be the one driving this change with a solution-focused mindset. This is the place to influence the business, optimize store operations, and build a happy, engaged, high-performing team.

You will need:

• An established management background in a similar role.
• To embrace changes that continue to evolve the business.
• The confidence to lead a team and make key decisions with them and the rest of the business in mind.
• The commercial instinct and drive to stay ahead, constantly promoting improvement.

We know our people are the secret to our success. That’s why we’re always looking for ways to reward great work. Alongside 30 days of annual leave (including bank holidays) and a competitive pension scheme, you’ll find a host of benefits designed to work for you, including:

• A monthly performance-related bonus.
• Product discount on the latest tech.
• A range of wellbeing initiatives.

Join our Retail team and we’ll be with you every step of the way, helping you progress your career the way you want. Build connections, develop your managerial skills, and discover new opportunities to push yourself further.

Not only can you shape your own future, but you can take charge of ours too. As the UK’s biggest recycler and repairer of tech, we’re in a position to make a real impact on people and the planet.
