What we can offer you:
Firstly, we can offer you a purpose: the revenue you make will go directly to the Children’s Air Ambulance Service, which helps save lives of our little patients across the UK. We can also give you the freedom to manage and develop your store as you want it with our support and frameworks – you won’t find planograms and VM guides. You will use your own experience to make the store successful. As an organisation we live and work by our values; Compassion, Creativity and Courage - you will have the opportunity to display all of these. In terms of tangible benefits, we offer 25 days holiday plus your birthday off to help you celebrate!
The role includes:

• 
  Managing every aspect of your shop: This will include using innovative techniques to increase stock generation, pricing, reviewing suitability of incoming donations and anything else required to ensure the day-to-day operational success of the shop.
• Leading your team: You will lead, inspire and engage with a multi-disciplined team of both paid employees and volunteers. Our people are the key to our success, you will grow them with us.
• Business Development: We think big, and we like our people to do the same. You will have targets to ensure we grow. You will play an active part in the community and engage with our Fundraising Coordinators so that we become people’s first choice when fundraising or donating
• Working in collaboration with other teams, such as our marketing, reuse and fundraising teams.

A bit about the role: Our new store in Sheffield sells Homeware, furniture, fashion and Bric-a-brac and offers a delivery and collection service. This role will be taking the lead of this operation and driving performance and sales through our paid staff and Volunteers. We believe in creativity and innovation so you will be given the opportunity to run the store as your own – we will just prop you up with the support structures you need to make it happen. This does mean that you can expect to be involved in every aspect of the store management – it will be ‘hands-on’ sometimes and we hope you like that.
What we would like from you: We need someone who has experience managing a large format retail operation which is extremely fast paced. We need a leader who has their people at the heart of everything they do and has managed all aspects of large multi-functioning teams. The potential of this store has no boundaries, and we don’t believe its success is contained within the four walls. You need to be able to engage with the local community and other businesses to support our Charity.
Benefits We can offer you above average holiday entitlement, a benefits platform to make your money go further and an organisation where you can thrive. We value a home/work life balance, so we ensure you will be given several Saturdays off throughout the year. You will also be working in a role where you know that the money you raise will help us to continue saving lives.
