Why not try a new type of retailing where you get to run your own store, inspiring a team of paid staff and volunteers to be proud of everything you achieve together at the heart of your local community and raise money for an amazing charity?
If so, we have a fantastic opportunity at our Runcorn store.
Operating within a fast-paced environment, you will work effectively and efficiently to maximise income from sales, gift aid, and other promotional activities, plus drive donations from the local area. Delivering a great store offer and standards, inspiring your team to give excellent customer service, you will raise funds for and promote the work of YMCA within the local community.
You will have exceptional organisational skills, creative flair, and drive, which, along with your commercial awareness, will enable you to motivate, develop, and inspire your team of paid staff and volunteers. You will be looking for an opportunity to work in an environment that offers challenge, excitement, and purpose. This role is varied, and no two days are the same.
Why join YMCA England & Wales?
We’ll give you real autonomy in a role that is varied and stimulating, with the opportunity to use your entrepreneurial skills to raise money and represent YMCA in your area.
You’ll also receive a package that includes:
* Pension
* 28 days annual leave including bank holidays (pro-rata for part-time staff)
* Regular salary reviews
* Support for your physical, mental, and financial wellbeing, including an Employee Assistance Programme
* Health shield cash plan
This is an exciting time to join us as we expand. We are opening many new stores across England and Wales. Our Charity Shops are unique, offering a wide range of donated products. We are passionate about recycling and pride ourselves on selling over 95% of our donated stock, and we do not sell new goods! If successful, you will join an amazing team and receive support and guidance from your Area Manager, Regional Manager, other Store Managers, and the wider Retail team at Head Office.
At YMCA England & Wales, we aim to create a workplace that fully reflects and serves its local community. We want all staff to feel empowered to bring their full, authentic selves to work each day. We have diverse teams, and we encourage everyone to do their best and support them to reach their full potential.
If you are passionate about improving young lives, this role is for you.
