As a Distribution General Manager, you will be given the chance to earn a fantastic package of £58,000 plus bonus, plus car. We are looking for a Logistics Leader with a real passion for people and strong business acumen

Our first ever Furniture Village store opened its doors in Abingdon in 1989 with a simple philosophy: to offer truly excellent products, prices and service to all our customers. Thirty years and over 50 UK-wide stores later, this philosophy still holds true and we are the country's number one, independently-owned furniture retailer and still growing. We put gorgeous, stylish furniture within everybody's reach.

As a Distribution General Manager you will absolutely represent our brand and vision delivering fantastic, friendly customer service throughout the customer journey. You will be a motivator that is results driven, who will deliver operational excellence through your team.
