* Commercial awareness: You use data and insight to drive sales, reduce waste, and improve efficiency.
* Attention to detail: You ensure high standards of presentation, safety, and compliance at all times.
* Adaptability: You’re comfortable managing seasonal changes, promotions, and fast-paced operations.
What you’ll bring:
* Experience managing or supervising in a grocery retail environment.
* Strong knowledge of stock control and merchandising best practices.
* A passion for leading teams and developing others.
