As an Assistant Manager within The Air Ambulance Service, alongside your manager, you will be responsible for driving sales and improving profit through effective management, and motivation of your shop team and yourself on a daily basis.

Always exceeding customer expectations by providing the best service and standards on your high street.

Within TAAS we give you as a shop management, the trust, freedom and autonomy to manage your own shop and team.

We don't expect our management to be in the office every day completing reams of paperwork, but to be working alongside your teams, driving sales and standards on a daily basis.

We look for and encourage creativity, courage and compassion from all of our employees and these core values help keep our service saving lives.

To enable you to deliver results you will work closely with the Shop Manager, Volunteers, Area Manager, Retail HQ, and Fundraising Coordinators.

Our best people are strongly aligned to our values, Courage, Compassion and Creativity. These are at the heart of everything we do.

Ideally you will have had some experience working in the retail or charity sector to give you an initial understanding of the sector we operate in.

However, if you have a passion for delivering exceptional customer service, are target driven and can inspire a team we also want to hear from you.

Please send us your CV and covering letter and we will be in touch.
