As Store Manager, you will lead the day-to-day operations of our busy Belfast store, overseeing a dynamic retail space and you'll grow an established team of around 25 dedicated volunteers. This is a fantastic opportunity to bring your energy, creativity, and leadership to one of our busiest shops, situated in a vibrant, high-footfall area south of the city — close to cafés, transport links, and other charity retailers.
You'll build strong relationships with volunteers, empowering them to take ownership and pride in their roles while ensuring the shop thrives both commercially and as a positive reflection of Save the Children in the community. With a keen eye for merchandising and a passion for people, you'll balance operational excellence with local engagement to drive performance and impact.

• Drive income and profit by analysing performance, maximising sales opportunities and implementing creative merchandising ideas.

• Previous experience in management or team leadership — ideally in a busy or volunteer-led environment.
• Excellent people and communication skills, with the ability to build trust and foster collaboration across diverse teams.
• Strong commercial awareness and confidence working to financial and operational targets.
• A positive, energetic, and adaptable approach, with a focus on problem-solving and community engagement.
