The Store Manager Mission:

As an inspirational leader with strong commercial acumen, you will provide flexible leadership across our full suite of stores, stepping in where needed (when there is a leadership gap) to inspire, connect & elevate our teams. Championing our values and experiential retail approach, you'll play an integral role in sustaining our brand's growth, consistency, and culture across all locations.

• Champion excellence: Maintain high standards of operational discipline, brand consistency, and a customer‑first mindset in every store you support.
• Lead in the moment: Deliver clear, constructive feedback on the shop floor, observing, supporting, and guiding teams in real time.
• Collaborate for impact: Partner with Area Managers and the wider leadership team to prioritise where your expertise will drive the greatest results.

What you'll need to thrive:

• Proven leadership: 10+ years in retail, including several as a top‑performing Store Manager or multi‑site leader.
• Adaptability: Comfortable with frequent changes in location, team, and challenge - thriving on variety and problem solving.
• Connection: Able to build rapport and trust quickly while influencing others through authenticity and empathy.
• Retail excellence: Deep experience across all areas of retail - people, customer experience, and operations.
• Values‑led leadership: A genuine brand ambassador & inspiring role model who lives and breathes our values, setting the standard for others to follow.
• Transformation mindset: Passion for projects, developing people, and transforming store performance.
• Curiosity: Always seeking better ways to do things and asking the right questions to unlock potential.
• Flexibility: Willingness to travel extensively and base yourself in different cities for several weeks at a time.
