Assistant Branch Manager

As an Assistant Branch Manager, you will report directly to the Branch Manager and support the day to day running of the branch. You will identify and capitalise on every sales opportunity, inspiring your customers with the perfect solutions for their requirements. The Assistant Branch Manager will be an expert at building rapport quickly and creating trusted relationships to ensure that everything we do enables us to deliver on our promises to our customers and exceed expectations. You’ll naturally promote and embrace our inclusive team environment and we’re sure you’ll have some fun along the way!

Key responsibilities

• Effective management of the team and resource in the absence of the Branch Manager
• Assisting the Branch Manager to profitably meet and exceed the branch sales targets
• Managing the sales office, branch purchasing and stock control
• Maximising margin and net profit
• Build and maintain relationships with new and existing trade and retail customers
• Previous sales experience in a similar environment is preferable, but the right positive attitude is more important

Experience

You will have a background working for a heating and plumbing or builders merchants and ideally have some management experience, but if you don't have the management experience then that's ok, they will train you!
