Ready to take ownership of a region and really make it your own?
We’re looking for an experienced Area Manager to lead a portfolio of locations across the South West, joining a successful, well-established organisation where strong leadership, commercial thinking and great execution make a real difference.
This is a role with genuine responsibility. You’ll have the autonomy to shape performance across your area, develop your management teams and identify where things can be done better. Whether that’s improving results, raising standards, developing future leaders or turning around an underperforming location, you’ll have the influence to make things happen.

- Taking ownership of the commercial and operational performance of your area
- Leading, coaching and challenging your managers to deliver stronger results

- Sharing best practice and creating an environment where teams continuously look for ways to improve
- Spending time across your area, staying close to your people and maintaining a strong understanding of each location
What we’re looking forYou’ll already have experience leading multiple locations, branches or sites and be comfortable taking accountability for performance across a geographical area.
More importantly, you’ll know how to get the best out of managers.
You’ll be someone who can look at the numbers, spot where the opportunities are and then work with your teams to turn those opportunities into results. You’ll be equally comfortable having a commercial conversation, coaching a manager or rolling your sleeves up to understand an operational challenge.
We’re looking for:
- Proven multi-site leadership experience
- A strong track record of improving operational and commercial performance
- Experience coaching, developing and challenging managers
- Strong commercial awareness and confidence working with performance data
- A visible, hands-on leadership style
- The confidence to make decisions and take ownership
- Resilience and the ability to operate at pace
- The ability to balance immediate priorities with longer-term improvement
Experience within retail, hospitality, leisure, logistics, distribution or another fast-paced multi-site environment could all translate well into this opportunity.
Why join?
This is an opportunity to take on a sizeable leadership role where you’ll be trusted to run your area, develop your people and influence results.
You’ll receive:
- Salary up to £70,000 per annum
- Company car
- Performance-related bonus
- Genuine autonomy across your region
- The opportunity to lead and develop established management teams
- A role where your decisions have a visible impact on performance
- Career opportunities within a large and successful UK organisation
If you’re an experienced Area Manager who enjoys getting out into the business, developing great managers and driving performance, this could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.
