Overview

Position Title: Trading Manager

Company:  Asda

Location:  Burtonwood, UK

Job Description

There’s a role for everyone in retail – including leadership. As a Trading Manager, you’ll motivate your Section Managers to deliver the best standards across your department, maximising availability and driving sales. You’ll have an eye for detail, maintaining shop floor standards and coaching your team to do the same. You’ll be responsible for ensuring that merchandising and operational standards are met, and that back of house areas run safely and smoothly. If you’re looking for a chance to develop further in retail, this could be the role for you!
As part of the leadership team, you’ll work a three-week rolling rota which will include weekends, evenings and sometimes late nights. At times, you may be solely responsible for the store, and therefore you’ll need to be confident in overseeing operation as a whole.

 

Responsibilities:

  • You’ll be able to work in a fast paced environment and be adaptable to change. You’ll be naturally friendly and want to get stuck in, working with your team to deliver great results.
  • You’ll have an enthusiastic approach and be a strong coach, mentor and motivator. You’ll be a role model to the colleagues around you, ensuring customers have a great shopping experience.

Requirements:

  • Alongside a competitive salary, you’ll get lots of other great benefits too, including 10% off your Asda shopping, incentive schemes, a pension scheme, bonus scheme and discounts across a range of services and activities, from airport parking to theme parks and cinemas.
