There's plenty of room for your ideas in our larger store

Our growing number of large stores are one of the most important ways in which we raise money to support people living through the challenges of life-changing illness. So when you become an Assistant Manager at one, you're not just helping us to turn a profit - you're helping to improve the lives of the people we exist to help.

Our Ringwood shop is a large shop so there's a huge range of stock on display - furniture, clothing, bric-a-brac and books - both new and donated.

As Assistant Shop Manager, you'll help to create a well-presented shop where customers get great service. It's a varied role, offering invaluable support to the manager, as you maximise sales, control expenditure and handle stock as part of a dedicated team. Remember that you could often be moving stock - which may involve lifting heavy goods or furniture.

To do this, you need to have retail experience, be organised and IT-literate, with natural teamwork skills. You should also have a GCSE-level education, good basic arithmetic and a gift for dealing with people. With these talents, you'll deliver retail excellence to grow income and make a difference to Sue Ryder Healthcare and the people we support.
