Solid execution of café standards supported by the store team fostering a positive culture of partnership within the café team and actively promoting Membership and book picks.
Delivery of good service by having the FOS well covered and the team being "heads up," greeting and offering help to most customers in an unintrusive, natural way.
Friendly, knowledgeable and professional service at the registers, working naturally with Membership, Our Monthly Picks and other store services, achieving sales objectives.
Effective selling of Our Monthly Picks, evaluating how well the bookseller behaviors are embedded and demonstrated by the team in a natural and enjoyable way.
Prioritized health, safety and loss prevention standards, demonstrating de-escalation techniques, confidence in handling active threats, Code Adam and emergency procedures.
Solid execution of roster aligning with the budget, so store scheduling is balanced to effectively and smoothly run the store, collaborating well with Rota Cluster Support (RCS) and when needed, with Recruiter Cluster Support (RC).
Skills
As an ASM you will continue to develop your leadership skills to effectively guide the team in delivering strong, consistent performance.
You will:
Demonstrate effective ownership of key responsibilities to support and lead the store team and operations, ensuring smooth day-to-day operations.
Support developmental priorities within the team, ensuring well-rounded abilities to meet the demands of the store and the potential of individual booksellers is realized, working with the Store Manager, People Cluster Support and/or RC to do so.

Demonstrate integrity and personal credibility, inspiring engagement and performance within the team and Cluster.Be resilient and determined when under pressure, remaining equitable and consistent while focusing and achieving goals and objectives.
Run the store effectively in the absence of the SM; enabling them to fulfill a Cluster role, stepping in to support the team or other Cluster stores.
Drive your own development, showing enthusiasm to listen, learn and be open to feedback, reflecting on it and applying it to improve and fulfill career goals.
All this work requires physical activity which includes prolonged standing, repetitive bending, lifting, and a lot of walking. You may work in other stores if you are able, and this is needed, collaboratively supporting the wider Cluster.As you gain experience, you should expect your knowledge and skills to develop to support others and the Cluster.
