Working for Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland in our shops will allow you to use all your skills to meet the challenge of turning a bag of donated items into income. Retail experience is preferable, although not essential. A positive can-do attitude is what we value. If you are creative and like working with others, especially a team of loyal volunteers.
We are looking for an enthusiastic Store Manager for our Newington store. You’d be responsible for leading a team to engage with the community to deliver the set Key Performance Indicators. You will have the autonomy to be innovative in achieving your targets.
Every day, people across Scotland are adjusting to life following a diagnosis of a chest or heart condition, after experiencing a stroke or dealing with Long Covid. At Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland (CHSS), Scotland’s leading health charity, we’re working to ensure there is No Life Half Lived, and you could play a vital role in making that happen.
We provide a range of services, notably through our Community Healthcare Support Service, which delivers supported self-management and recovery services across Scotland.
By joining CHSS as a Shop Manager, you’ll have a real opportunity to help people move beyond simply surviving, towards managing their health, regaining confidence and independence and connecting with their communities.
Why Join CHSS?
At CHSS, you’ll be joining a charity where your work has a genuine impact on people’s lives across Scotland.

We value people with different experiences, skills and perspectives. Our colleagues join us at many stages of their careers, from those taking their first steps into employment, to professionals seeking a new challenge, people changing sectors, and those looking to use their experience in a purpose-driven organisation. What unites us is a shared commitment to improving the lives of people across Scotland.
