As Store Manager, you'll be responsible for leading, coaching and developing your team to achieve exceptional results. You'll create a high performing culture, drive commercial success and ensure every customer receives a best-in-class retail experience.

• Creating succession plans and supporting future leaders within the business
• Analysing trading performance and using data to improve results
• Identifying opportunities to increase sales through customer engagement, events and commercial initiatives
• Managing budgets, payroll, stock control and store performance
• Working closely with senior stakeholders to share ideas and continuously improve performance
• Ensuring the highest standards of visual merchandising, presentation and operational excellence
What we're looking for
• Experience as a Store Manager within a retail environment
• A proven track record of delivering strong sales and KPI performance
• Outstanding leadership and coaching skills
• Experience developing and motivating high performing teams
• Strong commercial awareness and decision-making ability
• A passion for customer service and creating memorable shopping experiences
• Experience within premium, fashion, lifestyle, beauty or service-led retail environments would be highly advantageous
• A positive, energetic and proactive leadership style
What's in it for you?
• Salary up to £42,000
• Generous quarterly bonus scheme
• Genuine opportunities for career progression
• Premium retail environment
• Ongoing training and development
