Area Garden Centre Manager - #2133508

Area Garden Centre Manager | North West England

Salary £DOE

This isn't a sit-back area role.

This is hands-on, high-volume, and commercially driven.

You'll be leading multiple Garden Centres across Lancashire and South Yorkshire - supporting Garden Centre Managers, driving standards and making sure performance delivers.

If you're an experienced multi-site operator who thrives in fast-paced retail, this could be your next move.

The Role

You'll take full area responsibility for:

• Sales, margin and labour control
• Stock discipline and cost management
• Retail standards and customer experience
• Recruitment and development across your sites
• Delivering KPIs consistently

You'll work closely with Garden Centre Managers - coaching, challenging and supporting them to improve performance.

This is visible leadership. Not remote management.

What You'll Be Doing

• Leading and developing Centre Managers and their teams
• Driving high retail standards across all locations
• Monitoring multiple P&Ls and acting where needed
• Managing recruitment and succession in your region
• Troubleshooting issues quickly and effectively
• Reporting directly to the Group Operations Director

You'll be expected to set the pace.

About You

You:

• Understand multi-site retail performance
• Are commercially sharp and confident with numbers
• Can motivate and stretch leadership teams
• Are structured, organised and solutions-focused
• Have high standards and strong attention to detail
• Know how to balance people leadership with commercial delivery

You're not afraid to challenge.
But you're equally comfortable inspiring.

What's On Offer

• Salary depending on experience + car allowance
• Staff discount across Garden Centres and Restaurants
• Staff parking
• The opportunity to join a growing garden centre group
