Description

Mountain Warehouse is excited to introduce its newest brand. 

 

Neon Sheep; Who are we? We are quirky, inclusive, fun but not childish, fashionable but not slavish. We are not sensible or safe. We are… unexpected.

Rammed full of wonder from wall to wall, at Neon Sheep we promise a smile, from the everyday little find to that fool proof one of a kind. Just for ewe.

While stationery is our core product, we have a lifestyle range that complements our offering – offbeat, quirky and fun with a hint of fashion.

 

We are looking for a motivated and ambitious Deputy Commander In Sheep to manage our first store, someone keen on managing and developing people in a fun retail environment. We love seeing people grow; at Mountain Warehouse a number of our team have been promoted within the business and there are plenty of opportunities. Neon Sheep will have more opportunities; we want to see our flock grow.

 

You might have a real passion for stationery and accessories, and know about the products that go with them, but even if not, you can learn with us. We now have over 24 stores, with the most recent ones having opened in between lockdowns. There are plans to open more, around the UK; we want to see our flock grow.

 

Mountain Warehouse is a business that has grown rapidly to over 350+ UK stores in 20 years. We have expanded internationally and have a presence in both Europe and North America. Everything we do is focused on delivering the three bests: the best gear, the best service and the best prices. You can learn more about us and our products at www.mountainwarehouse.com.
