We’re now looking for an inspiring General Manager to lead our branch in Honiton, someone who can bring energy, commercial insight and leadership to the heart of our business. In this role, you’ll be the driving force behind your branch, leading your team, shaping performance and building strong relationships with customers. You’ll create a safe, positive environment where your team can thrive and where customers receive outstanding service every time.

This is a hands-on role where you’ll balance leadership, operational management and commercial focus to deliver results through the following:

  • A passion for sales and delivering excellent customer service
  • Great communication, organisation and problem-solving skills
  • The ability to make decisions and adapt in a fast-paced environment
  • Experience in retail, construction or merchanting (desirable, not essential)

In return, we offer a competitive package and the opportunity to build a long-term career with us. Our package includes:

  • Competitive salary
  • Bonus scheme
  • Company car (where applicable)
  • Generous holiday allowance
  • A great range of benefits
  • Ongoing development and career progression opportunities
