We already have nine shops located in Westbury-on-Trym, Yate, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Cinderford, Bath, Thornbury and most recently Keynsham but plan to open up to four new shops a year over the next five years, giving our charity a physical presence in the heart of communities we have served since 2007.

The shops will sell a variety of goods, as well as being a hub for our charity activity locally. Our shops need to perform well financially to help fund our lifesaving service, but we also want them to be a place where everyone feels welcome, the local community can learn life-saving skills and former patients or supporters can pop in for a chat.

We are looking for an experienced retail manager that can lead on the financial delivery, team engagement and community presence in our two Gloucester based shops. In return, we offer a competitive salary, the opportunity to be part of an amazing retail team and involvement in the exciting variety that retail growth will bring. We also believe strongly in developing individuals’ leadership skills and provide our shop managers with a leadership development programme.

GWAAC is a great cause to work for, and we have amazing stories to tell and experiences to offer. Our work is very rewarding for our team too – at GWAAC we know that we are contributing to saving local lives every week. We’re looking for someone who shares our passion for that.

You would be joining GWAAC at an exciting time, as the charity continues to grow and innovate in the field of pre-hospital care. You will be supported in developing your skills and be part of a dedicated team committed to saving local lives.

We actively encourage applications from candidates from a range of backgrounds and experiences as part of our keen commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion. GWAAC puts people first and upholds a culture of safeguarding.

Closing date: Ongoing until appointed.
