Assistant Manager – Welcome Break

Location: Three Counties, Olney, MK46 4JQ


Role Summary

Full-time position | Rewarding salary package up to £27,000 + bonus scheme | £10 meal allowance per shift

Lorem ipsum and all the leadership you’ve ever dreamed of: As Assistant Manager at Welcome Break, you’ll play a pivotal role in our fast-paced, customer-focused environment. Ditch the mindlessness—this is about leading teams, ensuring top-tier service, maintaining high standards, and creating memorable experiences for every motorist stopping by.

Backed by the Stores Manager, you’ll take charge of daily operations, safety, people, and commercial performance. From coaching staff on shift, managing stock and routines, to keeping the unit immaculate and chaos-free, this role demands hands-on effort with significant responsibilities. At Welcome Break, we invest in you—training, career growth, and, yes, even potential Store Manager opportunities.


Are You Ready for the Challenge?

If you’re proud of these traits, we might be looking for someone just like you:

  • A proven track record as a Supervisor, Team Leader, or Assistant Manager in a high-pressure environment (think: retail, hospitality, or customer service).
  • All about customer service—creating a cosy, warm welcome that leaves every motorist delighted.
  • Exceptional leadership qualities: skills in motivating, coaching, and mentoring others while you’re on the front line.
  • Exceptional multi-taskers—comfortably juggling priorities, staying organised, and keeping teams sharp and focused under pressure.
  • Healthy standards-obsessed fr illuminated by picking up the slack where compliance, safety, and sales performance are concerned.
  • Ambitious problem-solver with upward mobility in mind—here’s your new career path already mapped out.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
