Job description

About The Role

Topps Tiles is the UK’s number one tile retailer, renowned for our extensive range of high‑quality tiles and exceptional customer service. With over 280 stores nationwide and a team of 1,600 dedicated experts, we’re more than just a business — we’re a community. Small teams with big ambitions who trust each other, celebrate success, and put the customer at the heart of everything we do… that’s the Topps way.

What We’re Looking For

As a Store Manager, you are the driving force behind your store’s success. As the leader of the store team — and by using the Topps Sales Framework — you’ll be fully accountable for delivering your store’s sales performance, profit targets and exceptional operational standards.

You’ll inspire, coach and develop your team to create a performance‑driven environment that consistently delivers operational excellence and an unrivalled customer experience. You’ll build loyalty, grow relationships with customers, and ensure both trade and retail shoppers see Topps as their number‑one destination.

You’re a confident communicator and a strong people leader. You’ve managed teams, driven commercial success and can clearly demonstrate where you’ve exceeded sales and profit targets.

You know retail — and you know it well. You’ve had full P&L responsibility, consistently delivering impressive financial results while creating customer experiences that keep people coming back.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading, inspiring and coaching your store team, embedding a high‑performance culture built on great service, strong sales behaviours and consistent operational standards.
• Taking full accountability for the store’s commercial results — identifying opportunities, driving sales and ensuring both trade and retail targets are consistently met.
• Using the Topps Sales Framework to ensure the team delivers a customer‑first, consultative approach that uncovers needs, offers the right recommendations and closes sales confidently.
• Developing your team through coaching and regular feedback, helping them excel in customer conversations, spot opportunities and deliver outstanding results.
• Leading by example on the shop floor, demonstrating what exceptional selling and service look like, and motivating the team through your actions.
• Maintaining exceptional operational standards, ensuring the store runs efficiently, safely and always presents an outstanding experience.

What’s In It for You?

• Competitive basic salary
• Sales commission and bonus
• No evening work
• Christmas Eve & Boxing Day off
• Ongoing training, leadership development and real progression opportunities
• Generous Staff Discount
• Access to our Benefits platform with a wide range of discounts from 100s of retailers.

Bring your ambition, bring your leadership — and we’ll give you the platform to shine.

Due to health and safety requirements and the nature of the work carried out in our stores, we are unable to consider applications from individuals under the age of 18.
