New GAIL’s Bakery Opening in Chichester.

Help us share GAIL’s with a brand-new community! We're looking for Bakery Manager to bring GAIL's to life for the very first time.

If you're a passionate leader who thrives on developing people, delivering exceptional customer experiences and driving business performance, we'd love to hear from you.

At GAIL's, our Bakery Managers don't just manage bakeries; they run them.

You'll have full ownership of your bakery's people, product, customer experience, standards and commercial performance, creating a place where teams thrive, customers return and communities connect. Every day in a GAIL's bakery is different. One moment you'll be coaching a team through a busy morning rush, the next you'll be talking customers through the story behind our products, supporting the launch of a new seasonal range, or celebrating a team member's progression into their next role. It's fast-paced, hands-on and deeply rewarding, with great food, great people and real community at its heart.

· Building strong relationships within your local community

· Leading change positively and bringing new initiatives to life

ARE YOU THE MISSING INGREDIENT?

You'll have management experience within hospitality, retail or another customer-focused environment and understand what it takes to deliver results through people.

You'll be:

· A people-first leader
