  • Maintain tools, equipment and materials - Ensure all necessary equipment is available, safe and in good working order to complete assigned tasks. 
  • Provide clear support and communication across allocated stores - Maintain a regular planned visit schedule across all allocated stores—up to 15 locations—building strong working relationships, ensuring store teams are fully informed of visit dates, times and progress updates, and communicating clearly with colleagues and management to support effective decision‑making.
