Your Role

As Shop Manager, you'll have autonomy to run your shop using your creativity and flair to flourish in our retail environment. Our retail roles are full of variety, and every day is different! From generating and processing stock to designing an eye-catching window display or recruiting and training our wonderful volunteer team you'll find every day challenging but extremely rewarding. You will have experience or skill in the following areas but a great attitude and willingness to learn is just as important:

- Leadership. You will have some leadership experience and will strive to motivate and inspire your team to be the very best they can be. You will need to be able to organise and prioritise a busy working day. We will help you to become confident in talking about the important work of Scope. You will also play a vital role in the recruitment and development of our volunteer team.

- Customer Service. Our customers are at the heart of all we do so you'll want to provide the very best customer service and be a focal point in your local community.

- Being Commercial. Working within a framework you will use your commercial skills to spot sales opportunities.

- Stock Management & Merchandising. We want to provide our customers with the best stock package on the high street. You will play a central role by generating stock, choosing which stock is suitable for sale, ensuring our pricing is correct and then maintaining high merchandising standards on the shop floor.

- Teamwork. At Scope, you'll find friendly faces, welcome cuppas and chats with everyone in the team.

Your onboarding training, Springboard to Success, will set you up for success. Plus, you'll have 'on the job' training, working alongside our colleagues and learning how to drive sales by recycling our donations that will inspire you to become a Scope Disability Gamechanger.

About You

You'll be passionate about retail and have a love of fashion with experience of running a shop. Or you'll be looking for a management role as the next step in your career. To be successful, you'll need a commercial, can-do attitude and always put the customer's needs first. You'll be a dedicated team player with a strong work ethic, a great attention to detail, solid IT skills and a creative eye for displays. We ask you demonstrate an appreciation of Scope's values and ambition of achieving Everyday Equality for disabled people.
