Are you a retail manager with a green thumb and a passion for delivering a standout customer experience?

This is a great opportunity to take charge of a well-established garden centre.

• Making sure the plants look their best and your team knows their stuff when it comes to product knowledge.
• Taking care of cash handling, admin tasks, and back-office responsibilities.
• Supporting the goods-in process and helping keep the centre tidy, welcoming, and well-organised.
• Working with Area Managers and passing down clear targets and goals to your team leads.

The ideal candidate:

• A strong retail background with experience in leading teams and hitting targets.
• A genuine passion for plants and horticulture - enough to lead by example.
• Someone who knows how to get the best out of people through training, coaching, and motivation.
• A confident communicator with energy and a hands-on approach.
