We are looking for a Deputy Head Of Department for our exceptional Ladieswear department. This department is the fastest growing within our retail team and is known for its excellent service and high standards and we are looking for someone that will ensure these high standards are maintained daily by maintaining shopfloor presence and directing the team to get the best results.
About us
Situated just off the A9 in majestic Highland Perthshire, we are Scotland's most celebrated department store. Celebrating our 30th anniversary, we continue to expand and innovate, offering huge scope for career growth, job security and consistent hours of work all year round. A big company but on an intimate scale, we notice ability and hard work, recognising and rewarding loyal service. Our diverse customer base is reflected in our workplace, which is friendly and welcoming to all.
About the Role
The successful candidate will support our Head of Department to engage and develop the team to assist them in reaching their full potential.
