I have acted as Store Manager for quite a period of time in both Warminster and the busy High Street Store in Exeter. Duties include opening and closing the store, running the shift, cashing up, ordering stock, receiving deliveries, staff training, doing staff rotas and implementing the new shop campaigns when necessary.
