Ready to build something special in Harrogate?
We’ve got an exciting new project on the go. We’re opening a brand-new store in Harrogate, and we’re looking for a sharp, hands-on Store Manager to take the reins from day one.
At 15,000 square feet, this is a more compact layout than we're used to, but it packs a serious punch. It seamlessly blends our core retail trade with a dedicated, premium Kitchen & Bathroom Design & Installation showroom. Managing both the fast-paced retail floor and high-ticket project sales means a lot more complexity - and a lot more reward. You’ll also be a key player across the region, which means frequent travel over to our York store.
The Role...
The role of Store Manager within Wickes is essential - this means the potential is high, as is the opportunity for growth. We expect that you’ll already be a great leader with a proven track record of bringing your team along with you. You'll be great at managing your workload and you’ll have the safety of others (including yourself!) at the forefront of your mind. You’ll be customer centric, making sure each and every customer has a great shopping experience with us and that you’ll come to work with a winning mindset. Some of your responsibilities will be as follows;
