Applicants must have a proven track record of the above responsibilities, gained within a retail environment.

You will be a self-starter with the ability to manage multiple projects, possessing a positive approach that inspires learners to engage. You should be empathetic when managing expectations, personable, and articulate, with excellent communication skills. You will also need to keep stakeholders informed and involved in decisions and outcomes.

Flexibility to travel, with regular overnight stays, is essential. This role will cover a large geographic area, consisting of 30+ stores and requiring an average of two days' travel, with overnight stays most weeks. When not travelling, the role will be home-based.
