So you want to be an Assistant Manager for Mothercare?

You will of course know that we are one of the UK's leading retail brands, and that we have grown and prospered by providing our customers with the best possible shopping experience.

Did you know, however, that we are now entering one of the most exciting phases of our development in the UK, and require great people to be our Managers of tomorrow?

Firstly, let us tell you what it is like to work for Mothercare:

  • We really are a great company to work for - after all, being one of the Sunday Times Top 20 Big Companies to work for is a great start, which few other retailers can claim.
  • There are financial incentives in the form of a cash bonus scheme, this can be earned when store financial targets are met and exceeded
  • Our commitment to your personal development is second to none, as shown in our Career Development Framework. So if you aspire to manage your own store, there is a clear path for you to follow

As a result of having excellent people, our stores have earned an outstanding reputation throughout the retail industry for our great products and high levels of customer satisfaction.

As an Assistant Manager, we will look at you as a future Store Manager, and will work with you accordingly to reach that goal. You will be a key member of the management team in your store, often deputising for your Store Manager. Your role will be to assist in the day-to-day management of your store, motivating and leading by example the store team to achieve store targets and improve their own performance, as well as focusing on what we value above all else - our customers.

So what experience are we looking for?

Primarily, management experience within the retail sector would be ideal, coupled with some P&L responsibility and a real passion for providing the best customer service levels possible. However we will consider people who have management experience from within the leisure industry, and who want to step into an exciting career in high street retail.

So if you enjoy leading your team, coaching and motivating talent, and delivering fantastic customer service to achieve exceptional results, then you are definitely the type of person we want to talk to. Apply online today, or visit our Store to pick up an application form.
