I want to stay in retail and specifically in this store, but I want a change in my responsibilities. I'm currently on constant register coverage, certain opening/closing routines, and endless recovery. How do I approach my manager and ask for something that's more people and development related? I'd love ideas from anyone here who has made an internal shift before.

I would just approach your manager and be honest. You can say exactly what you have said here. If you have a good manager, they will tell you what you have to do to get into the position you want to get in.

Simply express your goals in wanting more responsibility and specifically what those responsibilities are. I’d just have a bit of patience, sometimes these changes don’t happen right away. However, I’d expect some kind of effort in accommodating this request.

You don't have to overthink it. It is not uncommon at all for people to want more variety, or to make a complete switch. Just have an honest conversation with your manager and let them know you would be interested in moving to a different role or a department If a position opens up.

Wanting to stay but change roles is so valid. I’d set up a 1:1 and say something like, “I’d love to grow into more coaching/people-development responsibilities. What would it take to move in that direction here?”

Hello,
London is a world class metropolitan city and so is the cost of livi.
But then why don't MAANG or other big techs pay as high for software managers and other leadership roles as they do in the USA, particularly California, Washington, New York. In fact for the same role, $ salaries are at least 3X higher to their counterparts roles here in London.
Definitely, London isn't 3X cheaper them.
Is it that companies don't want that high here or there isn't enough competition or something else?
