As our Store Manager, you’ll lead the planning strategy and execution of our supermarket’s day-to-day operations across key departments. You’ll ensure that availability is maximised, waste and shrink are minimised, and our store runs efficiently and safely. You’ll lead and coach your team to deliver consistent standards, drive productivity, and ensure our store is always ready for customers. Whether it’s stock routines, or compliance, you’ll be the driving force behind operational excellence.

As a Store Manager, you lead with heart as well as results. You build self-esteem by recognising effort, attitude, and growth, creating an environment where people feel valued, trusted, and motivated to step up. You listen with empathy, respond with care, and create space for open, respectful conversations on the shop floor and beyond.

You’re transparent in your decisions, clearly sharing the “why” and inviting your team to solve challenges together. You support your team by coaching through questions, encouraging ownership, and celebrating initiative. You believe in creating a culture of always serving with heart and pride, driving the stores selling agenda with healthy competition across the trading floor by bringing the “Asdaness” to work every day.

What Makes a Brilliant Store Manager

  • Drive strategy into action: Planning and identifying opportunities to improve trading activity on the shopfloor, delivering great availability standards, key metrics and KRAs through routine and processes.
  • Execution and result-focused: You’re passionate about getting things done right, first time, every time displaying resilience, focus and passion for the business and holding your team to account.
  • Commercial awareness: You understand how the right strategy, availability, waste, and shrink impact performance—and you know how to improve them, leading the shrink agenda through the team and driving standards and inputs as well as acting on opportunity with clear actions. Ensure POS one best way is followed across the store delivering strong value message for our customers.
  • Coaching and Leadership: Coach and support your leadership team on delivering brilliant shopfloor standards and develop our future talent by engaging and coaching your team to constantly improve routine and process whilst creating a culture of serving our customers with personality, heart and pride, and get one more item in every basket.
  • Organised and efficient: You thrive in a fast-paced environment and know how to prioritise and delegate effectively.
  • Data-driven: You use insights to make informed decisions and drive operational improvements, lead the shrink agenda by driving standards and ensure the store remains legal and complaint for customer and colleagues.

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.
