As an Assistant Shop Manager in Mind Retail, you’ll work alongside the Shop Manager and the wider shop team, inclusive of volunteers, to deliver sales and profit targets for your shop, where every item sold fights for mental health. The money raised from our charity shops funds Mind’s vital mental health support services, helping the 1 in 4 of us that experience a mental health problem in their lifetime.
You’ll also work with the team to produce excellent shop standards and deliver outstanding customer service - creating a hub for the local community. Our Assistant Managers also take full responsibility whilst the Shop Manager is away for the day-to-day running and overall performance of the shop.
As Assistant Shop Manager, you’ll also be invested in, and supported to grow. We actively look for opportunities to learn so we can do better for the people who need us. With development programmes and a vast programme of workshops, you’ll be able to take ownership for your own personal and professional development. You’ll be able to make a real difference and will play an important role in the fight for mental health, helping us to respond to the mental health emergency.

We’re looking for someone who:

• is passionate about retail
• has the ability to lead and motivate others
• can plan and prioritise their own workload and the workload of the team
• has a strong customer focus
• can demonstrate our values and behaviours, which are at the core of all we do

If you haven’t got management or supervisor level experience, don’t worry! We’re just as interested in people who want a career in retail, are prepared to work hard and are eager to learn.
We need great people like you to help us in the fight for mental health. Will you join us?
