GTN Xtra Promotion

 

Woodmansterne, a leading publisher and supplier of greeting cards to the very best retailers across the UK, has a vacancy for a Retail Development Manager for the South East, covering Surrey, Kent, East/West Sussex and South London.

 

As a third-generation family business started in 1953, we continue to have a reputation for quality, design, innovation and service. From our site in Croxley near Watford, our award-winning studio designs all our products. At our state-of-the-art, environmentally-progressive facility in Milton Keynes we house our brand-new production house and run our award-winning category management services into retail. As Woodmansterne grows, we continue to build on our heritage and reputation, and invest in our bright people and exciting future.

 

The company has a vacancy for a Retail Development Manager.

 

We believe that great relationships build great business. We take pride not only in the beautiful products we create, but in the strong, lasting partnerships that make it all possible.

 

We’re looking for a passionate, people focused professional to join our team. Someone who thrives on collaboration, communication, and connection. Whether you’re developing relationships with our trusted retail partners, or your colleagues across departments, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring Woodmansterne continues to inspire and delight through creativity and care.

 

The role requires an enthusiasm for building and nurturing relationships; excellent communication and interpersonal skills; a proactive, solutions-focused attitude; a focus on growing business with a team spirit that values integrity and shared success.

 

We offer:

  • An attractive salary, with sales and target-based commissions and bonus, along with pension contributions and healthcare benefits
  • A supportive, collaborative working environment where your ideas matter
  • The chance to work with one of the UK’s most respected creative brands
  • Opportunities for professional growth and meaningful contribution
  • The satisfaction of knowing your work helps spread thoughtfulness and connection every day

If you’re someone who believes that relationships are the heart of success, and you’d like to be part of a company that shares that belief, we’d love to hear from you.
