What’s in it for you?

If career development is important for you, whether you are operationally focused or sales driven then your future career path could lead you to become a Branch Manager and then onwards to roles such as a Regional Operations Manager, Regional Sales Manager or a Regional Director.

In return for your hard work you will receive the following:

What you will be doing?
You’ll support the Branch Manager with the day to day running of the branch. Learning all processes, you will be confident in coaching your team and managing the branch in the absence of the manager to ensure that all targets are met.

Organisation is key in this role - with a hands-on approach, you’ll be happy to get involved with all aspects of the branch whether that’s supporting with CAD designs or deliveries in our warehouse, or just making sure that we are providing the best service possible for our customers.

We are a trade focused business, so a large part of your day will involve working directly with the customers and creating a personalised experience. Alongside your team, you’ll be creating and maintaining relationships with local tradesmen, meaning it’ll be easier to increase profits and maximise sales.

Does this sound like you?
You will either have experience of managing a team or have a strong customer service background with a desire to take the next step in your career. Whatever your background, we’ll support your development and offer you the opportunity to make the role your own. You don’t need industry experience we just want people that are passionate about joining our business! Having a Full UK Drivers licence is essential for this role as you will be required to travel.
