You’re ambitious for more leadership responsibility. Maybe one day, you’d like to run your own store or take on a bigger role in the future. First, you want to focus on your people development skills – crafting a team that delivers what you need, when you need it.
This is a well-balanced management role with clear accountability – you’ll understand exactly what’s expected of you and who to turn to for support. Whether you already have some supervisory experience or you’re looking to make the step up, it’s the perfect chance to get close to your team and grow your skills.
What you’ll be doing
Our purpose is driven by our passion for food: together we serve and help every customer.
As a Customer Experience leader, your job is to delight and inspire customers from the car park to the checkout. Whether they’re collecting online orders, stocking up on essentials, or filling up with petrol, you’ll ensure they enjoy the very best experience. Reporting to our Lead Customer Experience Manager, your focus is on operational in-store management, ensuring your area runs smoothly, day in, day out.
There’s an emphasis on managing a medium to large in-store team – assigning tasks, planning breaks, creating rotas, addressing performance issues sensitively and effectively, and assisting with recruitment. You’ll be a visible leader on the shop floor, a role model who drives training and fosters a welcoming environment where everyone feels safe to challenge the status quo.
What success looks like
There’s lots to achieve. Here’s how you’ll know you’re developing:
