Ipswich, Suffolk, United Kingdom LUSH Full time


Diversify our future

We are building a brand that represents the people of the world. It's what you do that counts, and we are always looking to expand perspectives and voices to shape our future.

We see you, we celebrate you, we want you

Who we are

You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there's more to this great-smelling, partly employee-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good. We put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what's inside that counts - whether that's an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone.

The role

As a Trainee Manager, your main focus will be assisting in delivering exceptional customer service and creating memorable experiences. You will work collaboratively with the store manager to cultivate a team that shares a passion for making every customer interaction a delightful experience. Contributing to a positive environment where each visit goes beyond a transaction is key.

Your role also involves supporting the store manager in building connections within the local community, with other businesses, and charity organizations. Your commitment to outstanding customer service will contribute to the overall growth of the business, and we are here to support you in achieving this goal.

You will play a role in creating and executing "top box" goals for the store and your team, ensuring that decisions positively impact these goals. As a trainee manager, you will work with the store manager to assess progress towards these objectives and help shape the team structure for optimal performance. Recruitment and upskilling of team members will be part of your responsibility, aligning roles and staff to meet the store's needs.

Our business is driven by people, and we encourage you to enjoy your work, embrace challenges, and see your role as a starting point for building a career. Our flexible, supportive, and authentic working culture values your innovative spirit. We welcome your efforts to push boundaries, explore new approaches, and continually enhance the customer experience, offering our full support along the way.

This role is salaried for 35 hours per week.

An ideal candidate would have a keen grasp of store KPIs and how to utilise them to build the business, and how we can relate them to everything we do. We strive to offer the ultimate staff experience, ensuring our store teams are supported and nurtured to grow in whatever ways they wish within the store and beyond.

Teamwork and Training: Consistently leading by example on the shop floor, working with your team to achieve your top box goals, and maintaining a positive and supportive work environment, through the development of your team. Coaching and training our staff is an important part of building this teamwork, so a self motivated and passionate trainer is essential.

Communication and Community: Strong verbal communication skills to share business messages throughout the store, as well as working with your retailers, your manager, and stores local to you. We also work closely within the community, and want to continue branching out and around further still, to make those meaningful connections. Offering our time, effort, shop floor space and support to those that we can is what makes us special.
