As supervisor of the Debenhams Trafford concession, I was the only on-site member of management and ran the concession as the manger. My role included but was not limited to; - Staff training, reviews and disciplineries - Planning all staff rotas - Stock management - Visual merchandising My biggest challenge whilst at Debenhams was managing my stock levels which meant I could be transferring around 1,500 units of stock per week both in and out, to ensure the best possible stock range for the customer. This required excellent time management to allow it to be done as well as being reactive to what is working and what wasn't. I think my ability to do this was a large factor in the concession having a 25% lift on the previous year during my time there and also helped secure the company award for best performing Debenhams concession vs. KPI’s for the half. Following my promotion to junior sales floor manager of the flagship store I first spent time training and handing over to my successor.
