They can work on the shop floor and in a shop office.

  • Branch manager
  • General manager

Some shops have assistant manager roles too. This can also be called a deputy general manager.

This type of job may involve similar tasks that retail supervisors do, along with:

  • Motivating the team to reach targets and setting customer service standards
  • Managing stock levels
  • Recruiting, interviewing and training new workers
  • Taking part in performance reviews
  • Managing budgets
  • Writing reports
  • Keeping on top of legal and health and safety requirements
  • Analysing and forecasting sales
  • Dealing with customer complaints and feedback
  • Organising promotions, displays and in-store events

You may be on your feet a lot. But any office-based tasks can be done sitting down.

You may have to work on weekends and bank holidays.

If you want to apply for a retail manager job, you might need the following:

  • Previous retail experience
  • Previous managerial experience may be expected
  • Basic computer skills
  • The right to work in the UK

Qualifications aren’t necessary but can help. These can include a relevant degree, a college diploma, an apprenticeship or a graduate training scheme.
