Your superstore will be a place where your community gets to meet our people, understand our brand, and see some of the great things we do.

In a lively, vibrant working environment, you’ll discover something new every day, whether it’s a new high street trend, a new community network or a talent you never knew you had.

You’ll also be surrounded by people who are as dedicated to beating cancer as you are.

What will I be doing?

Guiding, inspiring and engaging a team of paid staff and volunteers. This includes recruitment, retention and development of a diverse superstore team.
Taking ownership and responsibility for the commercial running of your superstore including display and merchandising, stock management and generation, maintaining shop standards, store layout, sales and income.
Leading by example and providing excellent customer and supporter service.
Maximising profit through effective cost control and sales.
Working to agreed targets for donated stock, cash, benchmark gift aid, average selling price, sell through and stock processing.
Creating relationships with your local community and Cancer Research UK colleagues to generate community engagement and additional income and stock.
Oversee the movement and distribution of large volumes of donations including across other Cancer Research UK shops, superstores and eCommerce.
Organising and running creative fundraising events for your store to achieve fundraising targets.
Maintaining compliance with health and safety, safeguarding, security, administration and HR policies.

What skills are you looking for?

Commercial awareness with previous success working with sales and profit targets.
Experience of managing and inspiring a large and diverse team of people.
Comfort working within targets and motivating others to achieve those targets.
The ability to multi-task in a lively high volume retail environment with large volumes of stock.
Adaptability in changing situations, including being able to work effectively independently.
Creativity and a desire to seek out opportunities for new and innovative ways of working.
