B&Q Designate Trading Team Manager - Crawley/Leatherhead

Every day, we give our millions of customers the ideas, advice, tools, and confidence they need to create a home they’ll love. Join us as a Trading Team Manager and you will be pivotal in driving commercial delivery of the sales floor and coaching colleagues to fulfil B&Q’s ambition to make every customer count.

At B&Q, we’re passionate about progression and we’re committed to growing talent from within. We also recognise the important experience that new leaders add, onboarding several designate managers through the year.

As a B&Q designate manager, you’ll have the unique opportunity to learn about us and our business, typically spending 3-6 months working across a cluster of stores (in the Crawley/Leatherhead area). You’ll experience management training in various store formats before being placed into your own department or store.

Due to the nature of this role, there’ll be some flexibility and travel required during your time as a designate, before being placed within a store that matches your experience within 50 miles of where you live.

What's the job?

A great team needs a great leader and your role as a Trading Team Manager is to create a truly inclusive high performing team to deliver an exceptional service for our customers in store. In this role you will:

  • Drive commercial delivery of the core trading sales floor, leading end-to-end stock management, range change and promotions.
  • Conduct regular commercial reviews using sales data, loyalty insights, and customer feedback.
  • Support colleagues to build deep product knowledge and meaningful customer interactions to make every customer count

What we need:

Our Trading Team Managers are key to running our business by leading the team to deliver effective stock management rituals and routines as well as serving our customers. In this role, you should be leading in a way that demonstrates the following qualities:

  • Comfortable coaching, to bring out the best in your colleagues
  • Lead rather than do
  • Passionate about process, you believe it’s the foundation of great availability.
  • Well planned and organised.

What's in it for me?

As part of a great team, you’ll be valued for who you are. We’re committed to making B&Q more diverse and representative of the communities we serve, where everyone can feel they belong and have equal opportunities. You will have access to a range of networks that represent our colleagues and allies and help us to continue to put diversity and inclusion at the heart of our business.

We also recognise that wellness means different things to different people, and we want to help colleagues be at their best and feel well by offering a range of benefits to help you. As well as a competitive salary, our benefits package includes:

  • Award-winning pension scheme
  • Company Bonus Scheme
  • ShareSave options
  • 6.6 weeks holiday
  • Payroll giving
  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Shopping discounts
