This is a fast-paced, hands-on role where you'll be at the heart of the action, ensuring every project is delivered safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption to trading.
This a full-time field-based position, with regional travel and working out of hours and/or overnight stays required.

- Coaching, motivating and developing a small team, ensuring they are equipped to deliver exceptional results.
- Reacting quickly to challenges and resolving issues that arise during project delivery, maintaining pace and momentum throughout.
- Ensuring all fixtures, layouts, merchandising standards and signage are implemented accurately and consistently.
- Conducting quality checks throughout the project lifecycle, ensuring the finished store is customer-ready and meets expected standards.
- Driving a culture of accountability, teamwork and high performance within the refit team.
The skills & experience you'll bring:
- Previous experience within retail operations, store management or retail project delivery.
- Strong leadership skills with experience managing and developing teams in a fast-paced retail environment.
- Excellent visual merchandising knowledge and a keen eye for store standards and presentation.
- A hands-on approach with the willingness to work alongside your team to deliver projects successfully.
- The ability to manage multiple priorities and remain organised under pressure.
- Strong problem-solving skills, with the confidence to make decisions quickly and effectively.

What we're looking for:
