Trainee Manager

Manchester | Monday to Friday (9:00am–6:00 p.m.) | Start within 2 weeks

Learning Management From the Ground Up

If you have ever wondered how major brands build visibility across a city as fast-moving as Manchester, the answer isn't complex software, it's the people managing campaign setups on the ground. We believe the best leaders are developed internally by first understanding how customer interactions work, how event spaces operate, and how campaign targets are reached. If you have clear career goals, love working with people, and want to step into a structured development pathway, taking on a Trainee Manager role with our team is where that journey starts.

We are expanding our regional commercial campaigns and looking for an entry-level Trainee Manager to learn campaign logistics, event setup coordination, and team management across premier Manchester venues.

Inside the Management Pathway

As a Trainee Manager, you won't be stuck behind a computer screen staring at spreadsheets all day. You will spend your initial weeks right on the campaign floor, mastering customer engagement, brand presentation, and event setup logistics before taking on supervisory responsibilities.

Core Trainee Responsibilities

• Phase 1 (Campaign Essentials): Represent client packages on-site, greet venue visitors, and assist interested customers with digital sign-ups
• Phase 2 (Event Coordination): Help oversee promotional space layouts, check stock materials, and ensure brand guidelines are met
• Phase 3 (Team Supervision): Lead daily morning briefings, delegate campaign responsibilities, and support onboarding for new starters
• Phase 4 (Operations & Analysis): Track daily interaction numbers, review customer feedback, and report campaign performance to senior managers

Joining the Team & What You’ll Receive

• Guaranteed Base Pay: Structured base earnings complemented by regular performance-driven bonus incentives (never commission-only)
• Optional Earnings: Optional Saturday shifts for any Trainee Manager looking to increase weekly income
• Structured Training: Comprehensive entry-level management training covering campaign logistics, team leadership, and account coordination
• Direct Coaching: Daily 1-on-1 mentorship and continuous guidance from experienced campaign managers
• Broad Client Exposure: Practical experience representing diverse commercial accounts across Manchester's top event spaces
• Clear Career Growth: Transparent progression routes into Campaign Lead, Event Manager, and Regional Operations Lead roles
• Immediate Recruitment: Open interview slots with immediate onboarding available within 2 weeks

What We Value

• Confident, well-presented, and comfortable communicating face-to-face with members of the public
• Strong organizational skills, high attention to detail, and a reliable work ethic
• An accountable attitude and a genuine desire to step into leadership
• Experience in retail, sales, hospitality, customer service, or events is a plus, but not essential as full training is provided
