1 week ago

London, United Kingdom Sainsbury's Full time

Our retail trainee manager programme (RTMP) covers the geographical area specified in the advert title and both our Sainsbury's and Argos brands. Further information about specific roles and locations available will be discussed with you at interview. If successful in your application you will be placed in a store, when making this placement we will consider your current residence and travel time, flexibility on location will be required.

Why join us

Being a manager involves taking on leadership responsibilities, making decisions and on occasion overseeing the running of a store. Customers and colleagues are at the heart of a line manager role and ensuring a safe, legal, and secure store. To help you develop as a leader we’ve designed a three-phase learning journey that will help you gain the knowledge and skills required to be a first line manager.

Whether the role you’re placed in at the end of the programme is managing in a Convenience store, Argos or one of our Supermarkets, for this programme we’re looking for raw potential, whether you’ve got no leadership experience, or just a little. We value your unique strengths and experiences and are dedicated to supporting your development. We’ll offer you a competitive salary and benefits as well as great flexibility in terms of hours (Part Time- and Full-Time opportunities are available) and locations, this programme offers a platform for you to shine and advance your career in our thriving retail environment.

What you'll do

The programme itself consists of three phases.

Phase 1 is a focused 6-week learning journey where you will join a cohort of other trainee managers and acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to perform a management role through instructor-led workshops and tasks alongside e-learning. Whilst training we’ll also give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the role of a colleague. At the end of Phase 1, you will be assigned to a management role in either a Sainsbury's supermarket, a convenience store, or one of our Argos stores. This will be the permanent role you move into at the end of the programme and will likely require a change in location.

During Phase 2, you will receive training specific to your role and gain practical experience over a span of 12 weeks. Job experts will be on hand to support you, and your line manager will be there to mentor and guide you to deliver the daily and weekly routines expected of our managers. At the end of this phase will be your final sign off point and if successful, you’ll get your permanent position with us as a retail manager and move in to Phase 3.

In Phase 3, we’ll expect you to be doing the full role of a retail manager whilst rejoining your cohort for the final 12 weeks of the program. Here, you will concentrate on learning and applying the essential behavioral skills required for effective management, focusing on topics such as managing performance, giving feedback, and team dynamics.

Who you are

We want our leaders to be motivated by a passion for food, customer service or the products we sell, whatever it is that inspires you about our brands we’re excited to find out. You may not have any experience in leadership, but you’re excited to learn and bring experiences that have helped you develop skills in communication, customer service and teamwork. Most of all you’ll be excited to start your leadership journey with us. 

What we’ll give you

Salary starts from £12.00 per hour (London £13.15). After 6 weeks on the programme, you will receive an incremental increase to salary and finally after being signed off into role in week 18, your salary will increase depending on the role you are appointed to as below:

Trading Support Manager (Argos): £25,850 (London £28,250)

Trading Manager (Argos): £27,500 (London £29,900)

Customer and Trading Manager (Sainsbury’s): £29,250 (London £31,650)
