About us: We believe life is better in the mountains. Whether it's carving down wide-open runs, chasing powder through the trees, or heading off for a weekend in the snow, time on the slopes strips life back to what matters — speed, skill, and the next line waiting to be ridden. But great days on the mountain start long before the first lift; they start with the right kit and the right advice. That's where you come in. As a Retail Supervisor, you'll play a key part in helping your team grow, supporting customers, and keeping the store on track. You'll lead by example on the shop floor and step in to run things when the Store Manager is away. We're proud to be part of the Cotswold Outdoor Group, alongside Cotswold Outdoor and Runners Need, combining specialist expertise, trusted brands, and a shared passion for helping more people get outside.

What you'll be doing: You'll be a go-to person in store - trusted, knowledgeable and ready to take the lead when needed. In this role, you'll:

• Help the team stay focused on their tasks, deliver excellent customer service and make the most of every sales opportunity
• Lead by example on the shop floor by providing expert services such as boot fitting and gait analysis
• Mentor new colleagues and help onboard them confidently
• Manage store opening and closing duties as a key holder
• Carry out cashing up duties accurately and efficiently
• Lead in the absence of the Store or Assistant Store Manager
• Keep the store safe, compliant and running efficiently
• Bring energy, organisation and motivation to your team

We're looking for someone who:

• Has experience as a retail supervisor or in a similar supervisory role
• Is confident handling responsibility and solving problems
• Leads by example and builds strong connections with their team
• Stays focused under pressure and knows how to juggle tasks
• Enjoys being hands-on in a busy, customer-focused environment

What you'll get from us: We know that strong supervisors make a big difference, that's why we're serious about supporting you with rewards that reflect your role, ambition and wellbeing:

• £13.5 per hour (£11.8 per hour for under 21s)
• Performance bonus of up to £750 per year (pro rata)
• Clear progression pathways and ongoing training — from leadership skills to expert product knowledge
• 40–60% staff discount across all our outdoor and active brands
• Up to 33 days holiday, with the option to buy more
• Access to wellbeing support including free, confidential services
• Perkbox membership – savings on food, travel, fitness, entertainment and more
• Company pension scheme to help plan for your future
• Hands-on experience in a fast-paced, values-driven environment
