Sous-chef at Hjem-IS – Lead, coach and deliver results in Skanderborg

Are you passionate about sales and leadership – and motivated by creating results through others?

At Hjem-IS we are looking for an assistant manager (sous-chef) for our warehouse in Skanderborg. You will become an important part of the daily management and play a central role in developing our salespeople, strengthening sales, and ensuring we deliver great customer experiences on the road every day.

You should thrive close to both the staff and the sales, and be motivated by developing the salespeople where the work happens. An important part of the role is therefore joint driving in the Hjem-IS cars, where you coach, train and follow up on sales behavior and performance in practice.

About the role

As an assistant manager you work closely with the Sales and Depot Manager on the day-to-day management and operation of the depot. Hjem-IS is a seasonal business, and especially in the peak season there are many employees, high activity and plenty of tempo. You will become an important leader for a team of salespeople who spend most of their workday out on their routes.

This requires a visible and operational leadership style. You follow up on performance, motivate the salespeople, and continuously join in on joint drives, where you work concretely with, among other things, upselling, basket size and the perfect customer stop.

At the same time you help ensure that the daily operations at the depot run smoothly. The role therefore spans a broad range between sales, people and operations – and requires that you can create energy around you, take responsibility and keep track of the details.

Your responsibilities

Sales leadership and staff

• Coach, motivate and develop the depot's salespeople with a focus on sales and performance
• Carry out joint drives and translate observations into concrete sales training and follow-up
• Monitor the development of sales results and take the initiative when there is potential to raise performance
• Contribute to recruitment, onboarding and training of new employees
• Be visible and available as a leader and lead in the daily culture at the depot

Daily operations

• Work closely with the Sales and Depot Manager on the daily operations and development of the depot
• Contribute to shift and staffing planning and ensure that we are ready for the day's sales
• Handle inventory management, payroll reporting and other administrative tasks
• Handle customer inquiries with a professional and solution-oriented approach
• Collaborate with internal functions and external partners

Your profile

We are primarily looking for a profile with a strong sales drive and a desire for leadership .

You are motivated by delivering results through others and enjoy being close to the employees in daily work. You take initiative, follow up and naturally set requirements – while at the same time being able to create engagement and bring people with you.

We imagine that you

• Have experience with sales and preferably with leadership, coaching or training of others
• Are results-oriented and motivated by moving performance and creating better sales results
• Have a pronounced hands-on approach and thrive on being an active part of everyday life
• Take responsibility, act and follow up on what has been started
• Can create structure and maintain an overview in a high-tempo daily life with shifting priorities
• Have a positive and solution-oriented approach and contribute energy to the team
• Have good numerical and system understanding and are comfortable with the Office package

We offer

You will get a role with a lot of contact with people and an opportunity to develop as a leader in a sales organization where results are created in the market.

You will become part of a strong team around the depot and receive close sparring with the Sales and Depot Manager. At the same time you will have responsibility and the opportunity to put your own mark on daily life, the development of the salespeople and the depot's results.

We also offer a competitive salary, pension and other employee benefits.
