We are recruiting for an experienced Branch Manager for a very well respected merchant, liked by the staff and customers alike.

The ideal candidate will currently be a Branch Manager within the merchant sector with a proven track record of growing and sustaining a profitable operation. Passion and determination will be a pre-requisite in order maintain the strong business relationships already in place and to help build up a pipeline of new customers too. Basically, the branch's position is sound, but they don't want to be static in terms of market share.

This is an important branch, therefore you will have various departmental managers beneath you but ultimately you will take responsibility for maximising the potential sales and overall profitability of the Branch. It goes without saying that candidates will have to possess a demonstrable track record in sales, negotiation and stock control. The sales and the operations of the branch will be under your control. In this role, leading and inspiring the sales team is as important as the operational side of the position.

This is a great role within a well-respected company, with the opportunity to build and develop your own team in the future. You should be able to use market intelligence and analyse stock profiles as well as sales trends to anticipate future directions.

You should be someone that people will want to work for. You should be able to motivate your team and inspire them! Please bear in mind your management experience must be from the Builder's Merchants or the Construction Supply world.

Your efforts will be rewarded by a good basic, a strong bonus package and then there is a car allowance too on top. This is a great opportunity for career development and as such we are a looking for someone with ambition!
