Customer and Trading Manager - Online

There’s nothing our customers love more than a delivery to their doorstep, right when they want it with everything they ordered and brilliant service.

It makes for a fast-paced working environment too, which is ideal for anyone who wants to learn all about retail management and put it into practice quickly.

It’s busy, and you’ll be responsible for everything that happens during your shift; and great training will give you the confidence to lead your team, plan resources effectively and ensure customers are always delighted.

What you’ll be doing

Our purpose is that driven by our passion for food, together we serve and help every customer.

Online is all about the pace and organisation keeping your team engaged, our vans on the road and our customers happy. That means the team is super-busy as they pick, pack, prepare and deliver online orders to our customers’ doorsteps, from early until late.

You’ll manage your team’s performance and time, making sure they feel supported and that everything gets done.

Whilst on shift you’ll be ultimately responsible for making sure it runs like clockwork. In collaboration with other managers, you’ll be planning shift patterns and activities in advance.

And at the end of your shift, you’ll do a thorough handover to the next Manager.

We’ll give you the time and space you need to do all that properly. Because when a team works really well together, our customers notice.

Who you are

This is a great way to begin your management career in retail, or to develop the skills you already have and make them first-class.

Our customers are always looking for that something extra special, and your ability to guide, motivate and inspire your team of colleagues will be key to achieving that.

Our structure gives clear management presence across the full range of opening hours so that our customers and colleagues always feel able to ask for help or offer solutions when things aren’t going so well.

You’ll ultimately be responsible for making everything as good as it can be. We’re an award-winning diverse employer so you’ll nurture a team where everyone feels supported to be themselves.
