We are looking for a Driver to join us as we continue to grow our business through an exciting new venture.

Majestic employees, have you seen our new Relocation support available

After opening ten new stores since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, with ambitions to add 20 more branches to our impressive portfolio, Majestic is one of the few retailers in the country that is expanding our bricks and mortar business. We now need a fantastic new store team to help us continue that physical retail growth in Chippenham.

Joining our team will offer you an incredible opportunity to develop and grow one of our new stores in what is a brand new location for Majestic. You’ll be leading the charge for experience-based retail, wowing a raft of new and high-value customers with your brilliant knowledge, service and passion - in a superb site we’ve long had our eye on. This is a great chance to be at the forefront of our store opening strategy in a very promising location.

The historical market town of Chippenham is one of the West Country’s most vibrant towns. Chippenham enjoys a reputation as a flourishing and lively market town, with a compact centre and thriving commercial life. The main shopping areas are on and adjacent to the High Street, Market Place and Hathaway retail Park - which is where our new site is located. Chippenham’s colourful and booming street markets are held on Fridays and Saturdays in the High Street and offer a variety of traditional and modern stalls.

As one of our newest Majestic teams, being proactive with growing the store and engaging with the local community will be key. There are plenty of fantastic opportunities for strong walk-in growth as the store establishes its customer base, and the affluent local area could drive sustained success for years to come. This is a brilliant opportunity to be at the forefront of an exciting new chapter, both for Chippenham and the Majestic business.
