Stevenswood is looking for a commercially minded, hands on Branch Manager to lead its established Leeds trade counter.

This is a site based opportunity to run and grow your own branch, supported by an established UK business, an experienced team and a strong product range.

Alongside your basic salary, you can earn an uncapped quarterly bonus, starting from £500, plus an additional sales based variable salary bonus of up to £8,800 a year.

You will also receive five weeks’ holiday plus bank holidays, healthcare, free onsite parking and a 3.30pm finish every Friday. There is no Saturday working, so your weekends remain your own.

The role

As Trade Counter Branch Manager, you will take responsibility for the day to day performance of the Leeds branch and lead a small, experienced team of two Branch Assistants.

You will build strong relationships with existing customers, attract new trade business and ensure every customer receives knowledgeable, reliable and friendly service.

This is not a desk based management role. You will be visible in the branch, supporting customers, preparing quotations, processing orders and helping the team keep operations running smoothly.

You will have responsibility for branch sales and P&L performance, although you will not be expected to prepare the accounts. You will have the freedom to identify opportunities, grow the customer base and make a genuine impact on the success of the branch.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Leading, motivating and supporting the branch team
• Building relationships with new and existing trade customers
• Driving sales, margin and branch performance
• Managing the branch against sales and P&L objectives
• Preparing quotations and processing customer orders
• Promoting the Stevenswood product and service range
• Resolving customer queries quickly and professionally
• Supporting stock, deliveries and daily branch operations

About you

You will be a confident and approachable leader with strong commercial instincts and a genuine passion for customer service.

Experience within a trade counter, builders’ merchant, construction supply or similar trade environment is highly desirable.

Knowledge of PVCu or aluminium windows and doors would be an advantage, but it is not essential. Stevenswood will provide as much product training as required.

You will need:

• Previous leadership or team management experience
• Experience within trade supply, a trade counter or a similar environment
• Strong sales and customer relationship skills
• A commercial approach and the drive to grow branch performance
• A practical, hands on approach to branch operations
• Excellent communication and organisational skills
• A full UK driving licence

Alternative job titles may include Branch Manager, Assistant Branch Manager, Trade Counter Manager, Depot Manager, Branch Sales Manager, Area Manager or Business Development Manager.

What you will receive

• £35,450 basic salary
• Uncapped quarterly bonus, starting from £500
• Additional variable salary bonus of up to £8,800 a year
• Monday to Friday working, with no Saturdays
• Friday finish at 3.30pm
• Five weeks’ holiday plus bank holidays
• Option to buy two additional holiday days
• Salary sacrifice pension scheme
• Healthcare and life assurance
• Company sick pay
• Retail discount scheme
• Free onsite parking
• Paid volunteering time
• Friends and family product cashback
• Full product training
• Genuine opportunities for internal progression
