Branch Manager Designate, South-West London


We’re Benchmarx Kitchens & Joinery, part of the Travis Perkins family since 2006. We’re all about delivering stylish, high-quality kitchens that cater to all tastes and budgets. With over 150 branches and showrooms, we offer top-tier appliances, worktops, and joinery from leading brands.

We work closely with installers to design and deliver ready-assembled kitchens that truly inspire our customers. We’re a team that values collaboration, innovation, and customer satisfaction, and we’re always looking for passionate people to join us on our journey.

We are now welcoming applications for an experienced, motivated, and passionate Branch Manager Designate to join our leadership structure, supporting Benchmarx branches across South-West London.


What you will do

The Branch Manager Designate will provide support to branches and branch management across the South East, offering relief and project cover or consultative advice for operational enhancement. As a hands-on leader, you'll be a regular face on site, visible to our teams to drive culture and provide stability. You'll look to include these teams into transformative journeys, as you identify opportunities to improve, enhance, and maximise profitability. First and foremost however, you should be comfortable with the day-to-day management of a successful branch and a high-performing team, to ensure a comfortable continuity across Benchmarx showrooms, implants, and standalone branches.


Who you are

  • An ambitious, proactive,  but team-focused leader - able to inspire and motivate teams to drive high performance
  • A self-motivated achiever - mindful of targets, conscious of waste, and pursuing perfection
  • A collaborative teamworker - sharing responsibility and recognition to develop your people


Do you have what it takes?

  • A confident leader with great communication and interpersonal skills to motivate teams.
  • Meticulously organised with exceptional time management skills.
  • Proven experience in optimising branch operations by improving performance and sales whilst effectively controlling costs.
  • Strong commercial awareness and the ability to interpret information to support proposals.
  • Prior experience in a regional management role will be beneficial.



We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer. We want everyone to be at their best and it’s our ambition that everyone within our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic selves. 

You be you, it makes us, us.
