Plant Area Manager - Destination Garden Centre - Large Group
£20k -£25k per annum

Plant Area Manager | Destination Garden Centre | Large Group (ref:BP7450)

Location: Staffordshire
Salary: £20,000 to £25,000
Job Type: Full-Time
Duration: Permanent

Plant Area Manager

The Business

My client is a large garden centre group with stores based throughout the United Kingdom. The business has a reputation for quality and destination garden centres. This is a business which invests in its people and provides the opportunity to further a career in garden retail.

The Role

The role is part of the centres senior leadership team alongside the restaurant manager and deputy manager. It could suit a candidate who is currently a manager at a small centre and looking to step up or a candidate in a larger centre looking to join a group for progression. 
Day to day the role will involve the leadership and motivation of your team to provide the highest standard of customer service, plant care and merchandising.

The Person

I am looking for a superb plantsman with a real knack for retail.
Horticulture experience could be gained from practical experience or from an academic qualification but candidates will be expected to lead a horticulture focussed team with good knowledge. Retail experience must be good and you must have demonstrable management ability in a retail environment. This could have been developed in a role outside of horticulture but must be recent.

Please submit your CV in the first instance, or to discuss further contact Brad Peck at MorePeople on 01780 480530
