Retail Supervisor – Full Time, 39 hours

We are looking to recruit a new retail supervisor for our shop in Stamfordham Road, , Newcastle upon Tyne. We offer a permanent 39 hour full time position working a variety of shifts, 5 days from 7 each week.

Please note that for full time positions we will generally require you to be fully flexible in your availability for work throughout the week, including weekends.

We offer an hourly pay rate of £13.11 and you will be guaranteed a minimum of 39 hours work per week. This means you will be earning at least £511 per week and if you’re looking to earn a bit more then overtime may be available.

In addition to your pay you will also benefit from:

- 30 days holiday each year.

- Great training and development opportunities.

- 15% staff discount to use in any of our 300+ shops on a great range of food and household essentials.

- Free life assurance.

- A staff benefits package which includes a virtual GP as well as discounted services and products such as cinema tickets, gym memberships, days out and travel.

As one of our retail supervisors you will:

- Be an important part of the management team and support the manager in leading the team to run an efficient shop and provide a great service to our customers.

- Take full responsibility for running the shop in your manager’s absence ensuring that customers are looked after, deliveries are worked quickly and shop routines are completed to maintain a safe, clean and tidy shop.

- Open and close the shop, handle cash, place orders and develop your team of retail assistants.

- Take responsibility for the control of operational costs including shrinkage, waste and payroll.

You will need:

- A friendly, positive, hard working approach to work.

- To be a ‘people person’ who finds it easy to get on everyone and is able to build strong working relationships with the people you work with.

- To be trustworthy and reliable as you will be an important part of a small team. Your team and customers will depend upon you to do your job to the best of your ability at all times.

- Some experience as a supervisor, team leader or manager in retail or other similar industries would certainly come in handy but we would still love to hear from you if you think you’ve got what it takes to take the first steps in your retail management career.

More than just a job:

If you decide to stick around then there are many long-term opportunities for a career at Farmfoods. We have some great training programmes and always look to promote to Shop and Area Manager positions from within. Many people in management and central services positions at Farmfoods started their careers in our shops so this could be the start of a rewarding career for you.
