Supervisor
Joining Deichmann as a Supervisor is a valuable, career-building experience, providing opportunities for leading a team and gaining further skills.
Our Supervisors champion customer service and are skilled at promoting and merchandising our products. They lead by example, supporting their Store Manager in building and developing a team who are the best they can be and who deliver an all-round shopping experience for the customer.
Previous supervisory experience gained in a retail setting or similar is essential, as your role will include running the store in the absence of the manager. In return for which, we can offer opportunities for progression to Store manager and beyond.
Trainee Manager
Joining Deichmann as a Trainee Manager is the first step on our managerial ladder.
After initial training and being flexible to travel, you will continue to learn whilst providing managerial cover in stores across a defined geographical area and supporting new store openings across the UK.
Having previous supervisory/team leading experience gained in a retail or related sector you will be able to problem solve, think on your feet, have the ability to plan and co-ordinate resources. Above all you will be a people person who is passionate about all things retail particularly customer service and relish the prospect of learning new skills.
On successful completion of training, Trainee Managers are ideally positioned to take the opportunity to progress their careers as Store Managers.

Our Cover Managers are our fast track, high potential managerial talent!
Having managerial skills and experience gained in a smaller operation or different type of retail setting, after initial training, Cover Managers build their understanding of Deichmann by providing managerial cover across a cluster of stores.
