Making sure a group of Lidl stores operate efficiently and generate maximum turnover is a big, big responsibility, so we make no apology for being highly selective in choosing the right person.

We are looking for “up-for-it”, “ahead-of-the-game”, “do-it-better” retail professionals who have gained proven experience since graduating and who can develop the role. Experience, though, doesn’t mean you’ve seen it all before and that you can do the job standing on your head. It means you’ve learned the value of fresh ideas and have developed a passion for people management. It’s about strategic-thinking, bar-raising, problem-solving managers who can inspire everyone to be high achievers. If you’ve got it, you’ll get loads back, fast-tracked with a great package and every opportunity to develop your management abilities in a visible role with a keep-it-simple, fast-growing, retail-changing business.
