Assistant Manager in North East
on 26 May 2023
Decent as long as you have a good area manager
Stress free job, have your regular KPI's to meet such as sales, attrition etc. Salary is not too bad now for assistant managers after the pay review last year. Can earn upto a 20% bonus which you normally get 10-20% but last year they set ridiculously high targets and ours bonuses were affected even though the company took more money and LFL sales.Great environment as long as you have a good man...

Laid back environment but still professional
It's a good all round job for those who need part time work ranging from 16 hours a week to 30 and a good progression through the company and great courses if you need

Awful place to work
The only reason people stick in the job at screwfix is because of the money. It is a very toxic environment, and in most people’s opinions higher ups can not be trusted. The place and management mess with people’s mental health and I’ve never known a company so unsupportive towards their employees.
