On a daily basis, you will be responsible for effective planning of store operations, commercial changes, and inventory management. You will oversee the recruitment, training, and supervision of store staff, driving engagement within your team. By promoting a culture of customer service excellence, you will ensure that targets are met, with customer satisfaction as a top priority. Operational adherence will guarantee that quality standards are maintained to safeguard both customers and staff.

To thrive in this role, you should possess the following skills and experiences:
