Retail Supervisor – Edinburgh Sighthill

32 hours per week • 7:00 AM – 8:00 PM shift availability

About the Role

At Toolstation, we invest in people who bring energy, passion and potential to work. As a Retail Supervisor, you’ll be more than just a staff member – you’ll be the face of the brand, building lasting relationships with customers and ensuring they leave happy having received the best experience possible.

Beyond traditional retail duties, you’ll assist with deliveries, stock management and warehouse pick-ups, contributing to a culture of teamwork and resilience. Winter may be cold, summer may be hot – but with the right attitude, you’ll help drive sales, maintain store standards and create an environment where both customers and colleagues love coming to Toolstation.

Your Day-to-Day Responsibilities

  • Support customers and sales targets

    • Assist the Store Manager and deputise when needed
    • Motivate the team and coach growth
    • Ensure targets and service standards are met
  • Practical store operations

    • Handle deliveries – unpacking, checking stock
    • Stock and organise shelves
    • Maintain branch cleanliness
  • Outstanding service

    • Deliver a fantastic customer experience, even during peak hours
    • Coach the team to maintain consistent professionalism

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.
