We are currently recruiting for a Retail Development Manager to join our Booker and Makro Wholesale division.
This is no ordinary Sales role; together with the General Manager you will work alongside our Premier symbol operators and independent retailers to build relationships and trust, which in turn will grow and develop their businesses.
This role requires you to work a 5‑day week which may include occasional weekends and bank holidays.
You will be responsible for new business growth in your region through the recruitment of competitor stores and identifying new store opportunities for existing retailers.
The purpose of this position is to manage a defined territory with the responsibility for sales, debt, margin, cash profit and customer satisfaction. There is a particular emphasis on sales growth.
We can only accept candidates over the age of 18 if the role requires working before 6:15 am or after 9:45 pm or involves working in areas such as the warehouse, beers, wines & spirits, and driving roles.
On the occasions where we have high volumes of applicants, some roles may close earlier than the advertised end date in order for us to manage all of the applicants appropriately. We will only be able to offer individual feedback to those candidates who attend an interview.
