Garden Centre Plantarea Manager
Salary: £20,000 - £25,000


Garden Centre Plantarea Manager (ref:DS8642)

Location: West Sussex
Salary: £20,000 - £25,000
Date: 09 Sep
Job Type: Full-Time
Duration: Permanent

Our West Sussex based client will be opening a brand new restaurant, food hall and garden centre modelled on Beckworth Emporium. It will be setting a new benchmark by combining local produce and a table service restaurant with an exciting plant and gift offering. They will be distinct from virtually all competitors thanks to its focus on four key areas:

  • Table service restaurant
  • Fresh and locally sourced produce
  • High quality plants
  • Quality and unique gifts

They aim to stock a full range of high quality plants from bedding to shrubs and trees. Their expert team will ensure that customers can always buy high quality seasonal plants. They will also have an impressive selection of pots and containers including terracotta, stone and glazed pots. These will be available to buy for customers to plant themselves while there will also be an extensive range of pre-planted pots and containers to choose from. In addition, there will be a comprehensive range of composts, chemicals, tools and other garden sundries.

The Plant Manager will be an integral part of the store's leadership team, and day to day the role will involve the leadership and motivation of your team to provide the highest standard of customer service and merchandising, as well as supporting with the effective sourcing and selection of products.

You will be passionate about the service you deliver, with a keen eye for detail, and the creativity and passion to really enthuse your team. A commercial, creative thinker, you'll lead the team towards great sales and profit, whilst creating an engaging and inspiring environment, both for your team to work in and for your customers to shop. You will have the strength to deliver all KPIs and objectives set and a natural passion to hit your goals. You will be a hands on leader with a real passion and enthusiasm for plants and delivering a memorable customer service experience.

To be considered for our Plantarea Manager role, you must come from a retail management background (ideally garden centre) and be able to demonstrate extensive plant knowledge.
