Skills

The role

Inspire your team. Support your community. Lead with purpose.

As a Food Team Leader, you'll lead by example, support and develop your team and help ensure every customer leaves with a positive experience.

What you'll do

As a Food Team Leader every day is different, one moment you'll be coaching a colleague to build their confidence, the next you'll be ensuring shelves are fully stocked, overseeing promotional displays or stepping in to support the store during busy trading periods.

You'll have the opportunity to influence how your store performs by motivating your team, maintaining excellent operational standards and delivering the outstanding customer service that Lincolnshire Co-op is known for. Whether you're resolving a customer query, managing stock availability or identifying opportunities to improve sales, you'll play an important part in your store's success.

This is a hands on leadership role where you'll balance supporting your colleagues with making sure the day to day operation runs smoothly, safely and efficiently.

As a Food Team Leader, you'll:

Lead, motivate and support colleagues to deliver exceptional customer service every day.
Coach and develop your team, helping colleagues build their confidence, skills and knowledge.
Maintain excellent standards across the store, including availability, merchandising, presentation and cleanliness.
Support stock control, minimise waste and help maximise sales opportunities.
Ensure food safety, cash handling, security and operational procedures are followed at all times.
Monitor store performance, contributing ideas and improvements that help drive results.

In their own words

About the company & team

At Lincolnshire Co-op, our Food Stores are at the heart of communities across Lincolnshire and the surrounding counties. We're more than somewhere to pick up the weekly shop - we're a place where local producers are championed, great service comes as standard and colleagues genuinely make a difference every day.

Working closely with the Store Manager, you'll help create a welcoming, well-run store where colleagues feel empowered and customers enjoy shopping.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who's ready to take the next step in their retail career or build on existing leadership experience. You'll have the chance to make a genuine impact - not only by helping your team grow but by creating a store that customers trust and enjoy visiting.

In return, you'll receive comprehensive training, ongoing development opportunities and the support of a business that invests in its people. Every day brings new challenges, new opportunities and the satisfaction of knowing your work helps strengthen the communities we serve.

Because at Lincolnshire Co-op, we're not just leading stores - we're helping make life better in our communities.
