General Store Manager | Large Format Retail | Salary £65-80,000
This is not a typical Store Manager role.
We're working with a leading UK retail brand to appoint a high-performing Store Manager for a large-format, high-turnover site. This role is about leading at scale-managing complexity, driving performance, and building a team that can deliver consistently in a demanding, fast-paced environment.
If you thrive on accountability, pace, and leading large teams to deliver measurable results, this is where you step up.
What You'll Be Responsible for as a General Store Manager
This is a big leadership role with real operational depth.
You'll take full ownership of a large-format store-leading multiple departments, driving commercial performance, and ensuring operational excellence across the board.
Lead a large, multi-layered team - develop managers, not just individuals
Own full-store performance - sales, labour, stock, and profitability
Drive operational excellence - from stock flow and availability to compliance and standards
Create a high-performance culture - clear expectations, strong accountability, consistent delivery
Make fast, informed decisions - balancing customer experience with commercial priorities
Why This Role Stands Out
Top Store Managers in large-format retail look for scale, challenge, and progression-this delivers all three.
True scale & complexity - lead a high-volume store with multiple moving parts
Autonomy & accountability - real ownership of performance, not just execution
Progression into senior leadership - clear pathways into Area and Regional roles
Well-established brand - strong infrastructure, systems, and support
What We're Looking For in our new General Store Manager
This role suits a proven operator who can lead at scale.
Experience managing a large-format, high-volume retail environment
Strong track record of delivering against sales, labour, and operational KPIs
Experience leading large teams and developing department managers
Highly organised, commercially aware, and comfortable with complexity
Resilient, decisive, and thrives in a fast-paced environment
What You'll Get
Industry leading salary and bonus package
Structured development and progression opportunities
A role with real influence over a major retail operation
A business that values performance, leadership, and results
