Description

Store Manager

Location: Central London

Salary: 35,000 – 39,000 per annum

Sector: Premium Bakery & Caf Hospitality

Beautifully crafted pastries. Exceptional coffee.

Some caf s serve coffee. Others create an experience worth coming back for.

We're recruiting a Store Manager for an established, premium French–inspired bakery and caf brand, where quality is never an afterthought, presentation matters and exceptional hospitality is at the heart of everything they do.

Think freshly baked artisan breads, beautifully presented patisserie, expertly prepared coffee and a customer experience that feels just that little bit special.

With a reputation built on quality, heritage and attention to detail, this is an opportunity to lead a busy Central London store where high standards and genuine hospitality go hand in hand.

Store Manager – Your Next Chapter

We're looking for a Store Manager who understands that premium hospitality is about more than beautiful products.

It's about the warm welcome, the perfectly presented counter, the team who remember their regulars and the little details that turn a quick coffee stop into someone's favourite part of the day.

You'll take ownership of a vibrant, fast–paced store, combining the commercial mindset of a successful retailer with the personality and passion of a hospitality professional.

You'll be visible, hands–on and proud of the standards your team delivers, whether that's during the morning coffee rush or a busy lunchtime service.

Store Manager – What Will You Be Doing?

Lead from the front. Inspire, coach and develop a team that takes genuine pride in delivering exceptional service.

Make every visit memorable. Create a warm, polished and welcoming environment where customers feel valued and want to return.

Take ownership of the numbers. Manage your store's P&L, drive sales, control costs and maximise profitability without compromising quality.

Keep standards beautifully high. From product presentation and merchandising to cleanliness and food safety, you'll make sure every detail reflects a premium brand.

Build a brilliant team. Recruit, train and develop your people, creating a positive culture where everyone feels motivated to succeed.

Run a seamless operation. Oversee rotas, labour costs, stock control, wastage and day–to–day store performance.

Spot opportunities. Use KPIs, customer feedback and your commercial instincts to identify ways to improve performance and elevate the customer experience.

Store Manager – Is This You?

You might already be managing a premium caf , bakery, restaurant or food retail store. Equally, you could be an ambitious Deputy or Assistant Manager ready to take that next step, with the right commercial experience behind you.

What matters most is that you understand quality, people and performance.

We're looking for someone who brings:

Experience in hospitality or premium food retail management, ideally within a quality–led, high–volume environment.

Strong commercial awareness, with experience managing KPIs, budgets, labour and P&L.

A natural leadership style that brings out the best in people.

An eye for detail and a genuine appreciation for beautiful products, presentation and premium service.

The confidence to balance operational efficiency with an exceptional customer experience.

A hands–on approach, positive energy and the ability to thrive in a busy London location.

A real passion for food, coffee and creating an environment customers love.

Store Manager – What's in It for You?

35,000 – 39,000 salary

The opportunity to represent a prestigious, established premium bakery and caf brand.

A beautiful product offering with a strong focus on quality and craftsmanship.

A fast–paced, people–focused environment where your leadership can make a real difference.

The chance to take ownership of your store and build on an already respected reputation.
