As a B&Q Showroom Manager, you’ll run your own 'store within a store,' making the Kitchen, Bathroom, Bedroom and Installation (KBBI) department a vibrant place to work and shop. You’ll be responsible for motivating the showroom team to deliver outstanding customer service and for developing long-term sales growth within the store.

Experience in a fast-paced sales environment is essential for this role, and even better experience in a kitchen, bedroom or bathroom retailer.  As a leader within your department, you’ll be delegating tasks and making informed commercial decisions every day using your knowledge of the industry and the needs of our customers.

Passionate about DIY and home improvement, you’ll be a strident customer advocate, building lasting relationships with trade and retail customers by listening to their project requirements and supporting them with relevant products, advice and services.

Our store team is the face of our business. Proactive and open-minded, you’ll lead by example – taking action and considered risks whilst empowering those around you to make the best decisions they can. You have the energy and the drive to keep your colleagues fulfilled and engaged as well as developing them to meet their aspirations in future roles.

We need our management team to be flexible about when they work, covering store opening hours on a rota basis, including evenings, weekends and bank holidays. 

At B&Q, our core purpose is to create Better Home, Better Lives. We’ve helped more people make the most of their homes than anyone else, and we like to think we do the same for careers  Our policy to promote from within creates a unique culture at B&Q, where people are not just given the chance to thrive, but the support they need to make it a reality.  This is your opportunity to make a mark in a fast-paced and highly rewarding business.  Join us and build a career you can be proud of. You can do it.
