Job description

At Peacocks we pride ourselves on delivering stylish quality fashion at affordable prices on the UK High Street. Having first started life as Penny Bazaar in 1884, we are now considered as an established and staple fashion brand with a strong commitment to value for money.

We aim to offer our customers wearable style for all the family, whether it’s budget friendly fashion or the latest fashion trends. Our stores provide a welcoming and enjoyable shopping experience, reflecting our dedication to outstanding customer service.

If you are looking to join our team of over 3000 employees across our 350 UK stores, we have an exciting opportunity for a Store Manager to join our team in Arbroath, Scotland.

Located in this historic coastal town, our store is in the heart of Arbroath, known for its famous Arbroath Abbey, fishing heritage, and welcoming local community. With good transport links, including Arbroath railway station offering services to Dundee, Aberdeen, and beyond, the town offers a great balance between work and everyday life.

The harbour, sandy beaches, and local shops make it a lovely place to live and work. Our Arbroath store has room to grow, and we’re looking for someone to help play a part in its continued success in this well-connected town.

• Drive Sales: Lead your team to achieve and exceed sales targets, cultivating a performance-driven culture.
