Team Leader - Step Into Store Leadership
We're looking for a Team Leader to join our Cross Keys, Bedworth Food Convenience Store (20 hours per week).
This is your opportunity to move beyond a standard retail role and take real ownership-leading a team, driving performance, and building the skills to progress into Store Management.
What You'll Be Doing
As a Team Leader, you'll take responsibility for key areas of the store and step up to run the operation in the absence of the Store Manager.
You'll:
- Lead, coach and develop your team to deliver strong performance
- Take ownership of shifts, including opening and closing the store
- Drive excellent customer service and make us the go-to store in the community
- Support recruitment, training and onboarding of new colleagues
- Manage performance, attendance and team engagement
- Control key commercial areas including waste, stock and labour
- Maintain high standards across availability, merchandising and compliance
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll be expected to lead from the front and make decisions that impact the store's success.
About You
- Experience in retail or a fast-paced customer environment
- Previous supervisory or leadership experience (or ready to step up)
- Commercial awareness and confidence working towards targets
- A natural motivator who can get the best out of people
- Organised, resilient and comfortable taking ownership
