Summary

Spean Bridge Woollen Mill is part of The Edinburgh Woollen Mill and is focused on delivering quality products, great value, and excellent service. We are a major national retailer with over 200 retail stores across High Streets, Garden Centre concessions, Tourist stores, and larger Destination Stores. By maintaining full control over our product development and supply chain, we ensure the delivery of the finest yarns and fabrics — designed to fit perfectly and built to last. Our in-store teams are knowledgeable, welcoming, and dedicated to providing a personal service.

We have an exciting opportunity for a General Manager to join our team in Spean Bridge. Nestled in the heart of the Scottish Highlands and close to the foot of Ben Nevis, Spean Bridge offers stunning scenery and a peaceful yet popular stop for visitors exploring the area. With its proximity to Fort William and key tourist routes, the village benefits from a steady flow of both local customers and tourists, creating a unique and rewarding retail environment.

• Be part of a forward-thinking business with excellent career prospects

• Work in a supportive and dynamic team

• Company Pension

As General Manager, you’ll be responsible for the overall success of the store, leading a dedicated team and ensuring our customers enjoy a first-class shopping experience. This role is ideal for a proactive and commercially aware retail leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys the challenge of managing a high-turnover, tourist-driven store. Fashion retail experience is a plus, but not essential — full training will be provided.
