Concession Store Manager; Mamas & Papas at -FTC

About the Role

• Not often do roles pop up where you can put smiles on so many faces, creating magical moments your customers will cherish forever.
• Not often do roles come up where you're encouraged to be proactive, be different in putting a store on a map.
• Not often do roles pop up for a retailer actually opening new sites in the current market, where you can make a store your own, with freedom & job security.

Well here's one for you. At Mamas & Papas we’re not only the award‑winning No.1 brand in baby & nursery products but we’re also the UK’s largest specialist baby / nursery products retailer with Mamas & Papas stores & sites all over the UK and Ireland. Through amazing & continued brand growth, we have been opening up more and more of our beautiful little Mamas & Papas concession stores in partnership with NEXT.

We’re therefore looking to recruit a CONCESSION STORE MANAGER on a 12‑month fixed‑term contract for our site in Manchester Arndale, leading, inspiring and developing your Mamas & Papas concession team of eight to create these magical moments for an incredible community of new and expectant parents across Manchester and surrounding areas. These mini stores are perfect for an Assistant Manager or Deputy Manager looking to take that step up into running their own store, and team, their way.

Or, a current Store Manager, passionate about customer experience, with so many ideas, wanting to work for a business in growth that’s not afraid to try new things.
