About the Role:
There’s a role for everyone in retail – including leadership. As a General Store Manager in one of our large format stores, you’ll work with a team of managers and up to 500 colleagues to drive sales, set standards and deliver KRAs. You’ll be the key motivator, maintaining morale and creating an operation that keeps customers coming back. You’ll support Asda’s pricing strategy and keep costs low. If you’re looking for a chance to develop further in retail, this could be the role for you!

As part of the leadership team, you’ll work a rolling rota which will include weekends, evenings and sometimes, late nights.

About You:
You’ll be able to work in a fast-paced environment and be adaptable to change. You’ll be naturally friendly and want to get stuck in, working with your team to deliver great results as well as spot talent and support their development. You’ll have good leadership and people skills as well as be a strong coach, role model and mentor who inspires the team to be the best they can be. At times, you will need to deal with management issues such as disciplinary and grievances in a professional manner as well as manage rota planning and holidays.

Work Where it Works:
Our hybrid way of working gives you the choice to work where it works. This enables you to choose where you’ll be the most effective. It offers a mix of working from home and in an office environment that works best for you and your team.
You will also get an excellent benefits package including:
• Discretionary company bonus
• £8,000 company car or car allowance
• Company pension 1.5 times colleagues’ contribution (Max 15%)
• 10% colleague discount, free parking and many additional rewards.
