Assistant Store Manager

Description

We are hiring for an Assistant Store Manager to join one of our exciting stores based in Cheshunt. There’s an established team in place, and you will be working directly with them to help create the best customer shopping experience possible. Footasylum believes in our front‑end retail staff.

An Assistant Manager will assist the Store Manager with day‑to‑day responsibilities, overseeing employees, modelling effective leadership, and offering excellent customer service. In the Manager’s absence you will carry out their role and, through this experience, develop the skills to advance to the full Store Manager position.

We invest heavily in training and development. Our aim is to build an environment where employees can achieve, develop, and progress. You will receive regular 1‑2‑1s, training, and support, and will be given all the tools to thrive and feel empowered on your journey with us.

We also have a track record of progression, support, and training across the business. Your development is paramount to us, and we want to help you achieve your goals.

We’re looking for someone passionate about fashion retail and aligned with our values. The ideal Assistant Store Manager will bring a proven track record in fast‑paced fashion retail, strong leadership, excellent communication skills, ability to thrive under pressure, exceptional organisational skills, and a customer‑first mindset. A deep understanding of the fashion industry and current market trends is also required.

Ideal candidates currently work as a Deputy Store Manager, Retail Operations Supervisor, Store Management Associate, Assistant Retail Manager or Sales Floor Manager.

We’ve grown significantly over the last few years and are vibrant, engaged and performing well. Innovation is key to our business, and we want to create a place for colleagues to do their best work. You will influence decisions, help define Retail standards across the estate, and contribute to a happy and healthy working environment.

We recognise and value the importance of diversity to bring different perspectives and build great service. We aim to build happy teams full of people who want to learn and inspire each other.

We review applications on an individual basis and invite suitable candidates for a face‑to‑face chat to discuss the role and fit. We value open and honest conversations and collaboration in an informal friendly environment.

We look forward to learning about you and why you feel this is the opportunity for you.
