Shop Manager

The Betfred Group has grown to become a leading global betting and gaming business. From our humble beginnings in Salford in the sixties, we have always differentiated ourselves by offering real value and a great customer experience, the same qualities that are at the heart of our business today.

Today, Betfred is a well-known brand on the high street with 1,340 shops across the UK, along with a significant online presence through Betfred.com offering on-line sports betting, casino, and games. We are one of the most active sponsors of sport in the UK, sponsoring a wide range of sports and tournaments under the famous red and blue banner. Our own unique, in-house TV channel, Betfred TV is streamed live each day to our shops across the UK from our studios in Media City.  

Our 1,340 shops are at the heart of our business, and they all play a key part in their local community. As a Shop Manager, you will have full accountability for your shop’s performance and play a pivotal role in making sure that we offer a warm and welcoming environment for customers to place bets, watch live sports and play gaming machines. 

Day-to-day, you will be responsible for leading and developing a team of retail colleagues whilst delivering the highest possible retail standards and an excellent customer experience.  You will become an expert in betting and make sure our customers enjoy our products and services responsibly. Being socially responsible is very important to us and a key part of your role will be to ensure that all our customers are betting within their means, and that our ‘Think 25’ policy is always followed.

You must be 18 or over to work in one of our betting shops and have previous management experience in the betting or gambling industry. We will provide you with access to further training and development opportunities as we are real supporters of internal progression and are always looking for people who want to develop their career.

Please note, we do not have a sponsorship licence to sponsor anyone for visas to work in the UK, therefore we are unable to offer sponsorship for this role.



So, if you are a great leader, have a passion for delivering excellent customer service, and enjoy building credible relationships with colleagues and customers, we would love to hear from you.
