Work Pattern:39 hrs pw, 5 days out of 7, including weekends
Job Purpose
We are currently looking for an enthusiastic Commercial/Visual Manager who will be able to capture the imagination of our customers in our Newcastle store and enhance their experience of shopping with us. This is not your average ‘visual’ role – it’s much more commercial than that!
The Role
In this role your creative, dynamic vision will guide your approach to store layout, graphics, display and merchandising, while your commercial sense will help you to support the management team improve standards and drive sales. You’ll be responsible for floor layout, management of promotional set-ups, as well as the management of deliveries and stock levels within the store. As a key member of the management team, you will also deputise in the Manager’s absence. You’ll happily share your talent with the team to develop their merchandising skills and help them reach your standards.
Person Specification
You’ll need a minimum of 5 GCSEs with good grades in English and Maths or equivalent, and at least a year’s experience in a customer-facing environment within a similar role. You’ll possess excellent communication, organisational and presentation skills, be results orientated and have a great eye for detail. Computer literacy is always an advantage. Most importantly of all, you’ll be brimming with enthusiasm to join our team.
Benefits
In exchange for your relentless dedication and hard work, we offer a competitive basic salary plus bonus scheme, stakeholder pension scheme, life assurance, 20 days paid holiday in the first year and staff discount starting at 20%.

If you’re passionate, intelligent and hardworking with the ability to drive sales and achieve commercial success, then why not apply!! You can e-mail your CV with a covering letter to recruitment@pier.co.uk or write enclosing your CV to Paul O’Neil at The Pier Retail Ltd, Level 1& 2 Eldon Gardens Shopping Centre, Percy Street, Newcastle NE1 7RA. We’d love to hear from you!
