What you’ll do

You'll be the face of Toolstation, making a fantastic first impression, building long-lasting relationships and going above and beyond to make our customers happy. This isn’t your average retail role. It’s much more than just a store job. Of course as a retail supervisor, you’ll serve customers and support the Store Manager but you’ll also be checking deliveries, picking items from the warehouse and stocking shelves. And it can be hot in the summer and cold in the winter. But if you take real pride in what you and the team do, our customers will notice and love us all the more for it.

Day-to-day responsibilities

• Supporting: standing in for the Store Manager in their absence, motivating and engaging the team, or coaching the team to grow sales and achieve targets.
• Mucking in: checking and unpacking deliveries, stocking shelves, cleaning the branch and putting orders together.
• Delivering great service: providing a great customer experience with a smile on your face – no matter how busy you are, and coaching the team to do the same.
• Asking questions and building relationships: making sure our customers leave the branch with everything they need for the job.
• Building a fun working environment: maintaining our great product availability and high branch standards, while making sure that your branch is somewhere everyone loves coming to work.

What you’ll bring

• Hard work and passion: You don’t need retail experience. Just be focused on delivering great service and we’ll teach you the rest.
• A love of teamwork: Be happy to muck in and get your hands dirty.
• A positive attitude: Ensure our customers have a great experience while in our branch.
• Reliability: Be there when we need you, be flexible and fun to be around.
• Being yourself: Bring your whole self to work and let your true personality shine through.

What you’ll get

You’ll find every opportunity to be yourself and to bring your personality and potential to work plus so many more opportunities to take your career in retail wherever you want – up the ladder, across the business or into another role in the Travis Perkins Group. And because we want to do our best for you, you’ll be supported all the way with training and development – including access to our very own Toolstation Academy programmes.

Plus, you'll receive some of the best benefits in retail.

• 22 days’ holidays + Bank Holidays
