We’re looking for an Assistant Shop Manager to join our team at the Sense shop in Denbigh.
This is a permanent, part-time role working 15 hours per week across two days, with a salary of 13 per hour. You’ll work two 7.5-hour shifts across Monday to Sunday, so flexibility to work across the week, including weekends and Bank Holidays when required, is important.
As Assistant Shop Manager, you’ll work closely with the Shop Manager to help deliver excellent standards across the shop, maximise sales and generate vital income for Sense.
You’ll help create a welcoming and engaging environment for our customers, ensuring the shop is well presented, organised and stocked. From creating attractive displays and maintaining excellent customer service to pricing and rotating stock, you’ll play an important role in the day-to-day success of the shop.
People are at the heart of our shops. You’ll help recruit, support and motivate our fantastic team of volunteers, delegate tasks according to people’s skills and training and help create a positive working environment where everyone can contribute.
You’ll also get involved with the local community, promoting the work of Sense and helping to generate donated stock, recruit volunteers and support fundraising opportunities.
Some of your key responsibilities will include:
Supporting the Shop Manager to maximise sales and achieve the shop’s targets
Delivering excellent customer service and maintaining high shop standards
Creating attractive displays and keeping the shop clean, organised and welcoming
Pricing, rotating and managing donated stock
Supporting the recruitment, training and motivation of volunteers
Engaging with the local community to generate stock, volunteering and fundraising opportunities

Helping maintain a safe environment for customers, staff and volunteers
Supporting other Sense shops within the area when required
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for someone who is enthusiastic, organised and confident working with both customers and colleagues.
You’ll need:
Experience of providing excellent customer service
Experience of recruiting, managing and motivating a team
The ability to work effectively on your own initiative and as part of a team
Strong organisational and prioritisation skills
Confidence working with numbers and completing administrative tasks
Good communication skills and confidence engaging with members of the public
The ability to motivate yourself and others
An interest in and awareness of fashion trends
The ability to handle confidential information appropriately
A professional and respectful approach when working with customers, volunteers and colleagues
Previous retail experience, knowledge of selling and merchandising or experience conducting performance development reviews would be an advantage, but isn’t essential.
