Head of Retail

Head of Retail North of England - Salary £DOE

This isn't a head office role. This is full regional accountability.

You'll own the retail performance of a significant garden centre group across the North - leading through Regional Managers to deliver sales, margin, standards and customer experience.

What You'll Be Measured On

• Sales and profit growth
• Margin and labour control
• Stock discipline and waste
• Retail standards and audit scores
• Strength of your Regional Managers

If the numbers move, you'll know why.
If performance dips, you'll act fast.

The Reality

You won't run stores day-to-day. You'll build the structure that ensures they perform.

That means:

• Coaching and stretching Regional Managers
• Embedding consistent retail standards
• Driving operational discipline
• Using data to make sharp commercial decisions
• Partnering cross-functionally to remove blockers

About You

You're already leading large multi-site retail estates (40+ sites ideally). You've delivered profit growth. You've developed senior operators. You're commercially decisive and comfortable being held accountable. You're as credible in a store walk as you are in a boardroom.

Why This Role?

High visibility.
High impact.
Real influence over retail strategy and execution. If you want proper ownership of performance - not just oversight - this is worth a conversation.
