  • Coaching and motivating the team so they feel confident sharing their product knowledge and upselling with flair.
  • Supporting the Retail Manager in hitting sales targets and maintaining high standards of presentation.
  • Keeping a close eye on stock, helping with deliveries, and solving any backstage hiccups.
  • Acting as duty manager when needed, making sure safety, service, and training always take centre stage.

This is a Permanent position where you will be working on a 5 days out of 7 roster basis. Madame Tussauds is open daily and so we do require a flexible attitude towards working hours as shifts will include weekends and bank holidays.

Qualifications & Experience
  • Experience leading or supervising a team in a retail environment.
  • Organisational skills and the ability to stay calm under the spotlight.
  • A natural leader who can motivate and support a team to deliver stand-out service and smash sales goals.
  • Knowledge of stock management and visual merchandising (a plus, but not essential).
  • Flexibility, our stage is open daily, so weekends and bank holidays are part of the show.
Benefits
  • 25% discount in our retail shops and restaurants
  • 40% off LEGO online
  • Hourly pay, paid fortnightly
  • Merlin Magic Pass - giving you free tickets to all our attractions worldwide for you, your family, and friends every year
  • Discounted rates at Merlin hotels all over the world
  • Employee pricing up to 55% off cinema tickets
