No direct retail experience? No problem! We are looking for customer focus, determination, enthusiasm, and a willingness to learn.

Are you ready to make a difference in your career and your community? Primrose Hospice’s Headless Cross Shop is looking for an enthusiastic, innovative, and driven Shop Manager to lead our bustling furniture and bric-a-brac shop in the heart of Redditch! Whether you are an experienced manager or someone looking to dive into the world of retail and charity, this is an exciting opportunity to make a huge impact.

This is not your average shop. The Headless Cross location is not only a vibrant community hub but also a key donation centre for Primrose Hospice, supporting five other shops in the area. Our shop thrives on the generosity of our local community, bringing unique and high-quality furniture, homeware, and hidden treasures to our customers – all while raising essential funds to support families and individuals in need.

We are entering a period of modernisation and growth! We are introducing new processes and cutting-edge retail strategies to increase donations, boost sales, and maximise the shop’s income. This is your chance to be part of a forward-thinking team, bringing fresh ideas and energy to the charity retail sector and helping us raise even more for an incredible cause.

We want a dynamic, customer-focused individual with a passion for people and an eye for opportunity. If you are great with people, thrive in fast-paced environments, and love the idea of leading a team to make a tangible difference in your community, we would love to hear from you.

Are you ready to lead, inspire, and make a difference?  Apply today to be part of something truly special.
