Your skills as both an ambassador and role model will enable you to build relationships based on trust across the wider team, including the local Retail store and Halfords Mobile Expert team. And within your Centre, you'll get to use - and hone - your mentoring and coaching skills as you develop your team to be exceptional role models themselves.

- IT proficient, with experience of using Microsoft packages, including Word, Excel and ideally PowerPoint, with the aptitude to learn in-house systems
- Experience of labour force scheduling, with proven time management skills
- A current full valid driving licence
- Ideally, you'll also have experience or knowledge of the automotive industry - but this is not essential
