Anyone here an area manager - Hospitality or Retail

[Yucca]

Evening all

Anyone here work at senior management level in the hospitality or retail sector? Ie Area Manager looking after a number of sites. Or perhaps work in recruitment recruiting such candidates?

Im struggling with some changes in my work circumstances and would welcome anyone who can advise me. I can provide more details via email if anyone can help.

Iv turned to the forums as I know there are thousands of members on here and over the years the forums never seem to disappoint!

I used to be an area manager for a very large and well known retailer about 5 years ago. I am not sure if that helps?

I'm sure people can advise you without being an area manager, almost everything is interchangeable in many different roles.

Dont suppose I could ask you to spare a little time for a chat? Maybe you can give me some advice. Id be extremely grateful.

I've about 11 years experience generally working in a relevant position - but I've never been an area manager but might have some insight :s and no desire to ever work that role - its generally a tough and thankless task where everyone below you are convinced you are the devil incarnate and everyone above you holds you responsible for the ineptitude of everyone below you.

No problem but it might be worth doing it via email because our time zones are going to be very different with me working overseas now etc.

Drop me a trust
