Assistant Shop Manager

Assistant Shop Manager

Type: Permanent, part-time

Location: Wareham, Dorset

Salary: £24,778 per annum (pro rata)

Overview

Do you love retail and animals?

Would you like a role where your work directly helps animals feel safe, cared for and loved?

At Margaret Green Animal Rescue, every item sold in our charity shops helps fund rescue, care and enrichment for animals who need a second chance.

We’re looking for a friendly, organised and enthusiastic Assistant Shop Manager to support the Shop Manager in the successful day-to-day running of our busy Wareham shop.

What this role is really about…

This role is about supporting the Shop Manager to deliver an excellent shopping experience, maximise income and create a welcoming environment for customers and volunteers.

You will help ensure the shop operates efficiently and, in the Shop Manager’s absence, confidently take responsibility for the day-to-day running of the store.

We’d love to hear from you, if you…

• Have previous retail experience.
• Have supervisory or team leader experience (desirable but not essential).
• Enjoy working with and supporting people.
• Are organised, reliable and happy to work in a hands-on environment.
• Have a good eye for merchandising and customer service.
• Are flexible and able to work on a rota basis, including weekends.
• Care about animal welfare and supporting a local charity.

Experience working with volunteers or in charity retail would be an advantage but isn’t essential—we’re looking for someone with a positive attitude, initiative and a genuine passion for making a difference.

If you’re looking for a rewarding retail role where you can support a great team and help raise vital funds for animals in need, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply today and help change lives—one shop at a time.
