Power the department. Drive performance. Deliver results.
Lords Builders Merchants is looking for an Electrical Branch Manager to take full ownership of the electrical department at our Sudbury branch.
This is not a back‑office role. It’s a hands‑on, commercially focused position where you’ll be expected to drive performance, grow revenue, and make a visible impact on the branch.
You’ll be responsible for the performance of the electrical department — from sales and margins through to stock, suppliers and customer relationships.
What you’ll be doing
* Drive sales growth and consistently deliver against targets
* Take ownership of customer relationships, winning new business and growing existing accounts
* Manage the full sales cycle from enquiry through to delivery
* Set pricing and manage margins with a strong commercial focus
* Build and maintain effective supplier relationships
* Control stock levels, range and availability
* Run the day‑to‑day operation of the department
* Work closely with the wider branch team to deliver results
What we’re looking for
* At least 2 years’ experience within the electrical industry, with clear evidence of delivering results
* Strong electrical product knowledge and understanding of the trade
* A proven track record in a sales‑driven environment
* Commercial awareness and confidence managing pricing and margins
* The ability to build relationships and win business
* A proactive, hands‑on approach with real ownership
* Strong organisation and attention to detail
* Eligible to work in the UK
Hours: 7am–5pm Monday to Friday, 8am–12pm alternate Saturdays
Holiday: 23 days plus Bank Holidays
Salary: Competitive
Benefits: Discretionary bonus scheme
If you know the electrical trade and can demonstrate results, this is your opportunity to step up and run your own department – we’d love to hear from you!
