FULL DESCRIPTION

Night Manager

Manage and lead the night team to keep everything running whilst the rest of the world sleeps, ensuring we are delivering the best availability and highest shop floor standards across all departments, whilst ensuring our store remains safe and legal for our customers and colleagues.

About the Role

As the Night Manager, you will manage and lead the night team to keep everything running whilst the rest of the world sleeps, ensuring we are delivering the best availability and highest shop floor standards across all departments, whilst ensuring our store remains safe and legal for our customers and colleagues.

As part of the leadership team, you'll work a rolling rota and 4 nights over 7 including weekend working. You will be solely responsible for the store through the night, and therefore you'll need to be confident in overseeing operation as a whole where store is open 24 hours.

(only for Supermarket and Superstores/centres with no Lead Night Manager in structure)
  • Lead with impact: Leading and coaching night colleagues and team leaders to deliver excellent shopfloor standards whilst creating a culture of selling our customers with personality, serving with heart and pride, and get one more item in every basket.
  • Execution-focused: Ensuring shopfloor is landed and presentable for customers before handing over to day team with promotion, Foyer and hot spots fit for trade.
  • Talent Development: Listen with empathy, driving resilience and encourage ownership, focus and passion for the business by bringing the “Asdaness” to work every day and supporting the development of the team and creating an environment where people feel valued, trusted, and motivated to step up.

What you’ll bring:

  • Experience supervising or managing teams in a retail grocery environment, ideally overnight.
  • Ability to make decisions independently with a hands-on attitude and a drive to improve processes and people.
  • Confidence in developing teams and managing change.
  • Strong customer service focus.

The Retail Learning Journey

We want everyone who joins our stores to have everything they need to grow into confident colleagues across our departments. That’s what our Learning Journey, split into Ready to Go – Ready to Serve – Ready to Grow, is all about. From your induction to your fifth year with us, it’s designed to support your growth across different roles in our job families, so you develop your skills and join other departments.

Ready to Go

We’ll welcome you into the business, helping you settle in, making sure you have the knowledge and support you need to be confident in your new role.

Ready to Serve

You’ll shadow some of our team members across different roles in our job families, and learn about the different levels in their department or store in bite-sized learning missions. So you can learn, grow, and get the knowledge you need to work in a new department.

Ready to Grow

When you’re ready, you can start thinking about where you want to go next, and what learning you need to grow. And we’ll help you make it happen, and help you develop your skills so you’re ready to grow into your next role.

There's always doors open to career development if you want it. You do have to be self-motivated to progress your own development, but the opportunities are there and you get out of it what you're putting in.
