**** About the Role
** We’re bringing mutual savings, mortgages and financial advice for all back to the Greater Manchester region.

Following our merger with Manchester Building Society in 2023, we returned to the high street in September 2025, with our flagship King Street branch. That was just the beginning of a new era!

We have made great progress in our long-term goal to immerse our society into the fabric of Manchester. Engaging new members to join the movement through face-to-face financial services, enabling us to make a real difference in the local community.

We now have a leadership opportunity as our King Street Assistant Branch Manager, enabling you to make a significant contribution to our growth. In return you will have the opportunity to develop and progress your career, ready to take the lead in a future Branch Manager role as we grow our branch network across Greater Manchester.
Mutually inclusive, made by our members, as Manchester Building Society, part of Newcastle Building Society Group, we will provide savings and mortgage products with personal customer service and face-to-face financial guidance and advice open to all, not just the wealthy.

Within this role, you will support the Branch Manager in the day to day running of our city centre branch, encouraging and coaching colleagues and often acting as a Deputy when required.

This opportunity will also involve managing the Branch to achieve business results by establishing and building long term relationships with our customers whilst providing a friendly and professional service.

You will take personal ownership in applying the Branch 'understanding needs process', suggesting options that customers may consider as well as qualifying leads for the relevant advice specialists.

You will have plenty of opportunities to have a positive impact across Greater Manchester through attendance of charity and networking events, leadership of pop-up activity across the city region and supporting communities through delivering community talks on a variety of financial educational topics.
** About You
** As a credible people leader, you will have first class communication skills, as well as a natural ability to motivate and lead from the front. Your strong leadership, coaching, and mentoring skills will see your team maintain the very highest levels of customer satisfaction and customer advocacy we strive for.

Your experience of working in a customer-facing management role and achieving organisational KPI’s will stand you in great stead to take the branch forward in achieving its goals.

Branch based banking leadership experience is advantageous, however we will consider applications from candidates with strong leadership experience within customer facing environments. We are looking for a proven leader that has further career aspirations and wants to join a growing purpose led organisation.

You see the Assistant Branch Manager role as an entry point to build a solid foundation of experience which will support your goal to progress to a potential future Branch Manager role.

As an inclusive employer and a part of a member owned mutual, we aim to reflect the communities we serve. We encourage applications from candidates from a variety of backgrounds and life experiences. Individuality is good for you, good for us and great for our customers.
