Shift Leader in Barnard Castle

We've got a fantastic opportunity for a Shift Leader to join our store team and help keep our business running smoothly every day.

As a Shift Leader, you'll step up in the absence of the store's leadership team to take responsibility for the safe, legal, and effective running of the store. You'll bring a "sleeves rolled up" mindset, using your initiative to solve problems, support your colleagues, and make sure our standards stay high.

• Put customers first: Take real pride in improving the customer journey, helping remove barriers, and creating moments that matter across all areas of the store.
• Lead a 'one team' approach: Coach, guide, and support colleagues on the shift, building strong relationships and fostering a warm, helpful team spirit.
• Keep standards high, safe, and legal: Open and close the store, manage security systems, and embed strict adherence to safe and legal working practices.
• Drive operational standards: Follow operational guidance to ensure the store is always ready for trade, dealing calmly with emergencies, enforcement visits, or unexpected changes.
• Look after sales and stock: Keep waste and stock loss to a minimum through careful stock rotation and handling, making sure our shelves are full and ready for our customers.

You'll be the kind of person who:

• Loves leading a team and going above and beyond for our colleagues and customers
• Enjoys staying active, getting stuck in, and bringing positive energy to a fast-paced, ever-changing store environment.
• Has a sharp eye for detail and likes to use their initiative to spot opportunities, keep standards high, and help deliver store plans smoothly.
• Is comfortable picking up and using a range of store equipment, tools, and retail technology.
• Stays calm under pressure and has experience handling emergency situations while following safe, legal policies and procedures to protect the team and store.
