Job description

Our Private Shopping team is now looking for a Client Experience Floor Manager to lead the delivery of exceptional, personalised service for some of Harrods’ most valued clients. This is a rare opportunity to help shape the experience in our world-class Private Shopping Penthouse, ensuring our ultra high-net-worth clients receive nothing short of excellence at every touchpoint.

About the Role

As the Client Experience Floor Manager, you will be the operational heartbeat of our Private Shopping space – overseeing the day-to-day running of the Penthouse and Private Service Suite (PSS) and ensuring every element is guest-ready. Whether supporting suite transitions, resolving service escalations or hosting clients alongside the front-of-house team, your presence will ensure a flawless, luxurious environment.

You will work closely with the Assistant Managers for both hospitality and FOH, taking a hands-on approach to service delivery while coaching, supporting and upskilling your team in real time. From managing events to leading space audits and maintaining service excellence, you will be a visible leader, trusted by clients and respected by colleagues.

Key responsibilities include :

• Overseeing daily operations of the Penthouse and PSS, ensuring seamless execution of bookings and lounge usage
• Conducting regular floor walks, maintaining an impeccable client-facing environment and managing space readiness
• Greeting and hosting Private Shopping clients, setting the tone for service excellence
• Handling complaints or escalations with calm professionalism, always aiming to turn challenges into positive experiences
• Coaching the team on the floor, providing immediate support and guidance where needed
• Acting as a key liaison for brand activations and events within the space, ensuring high standards of delivery
• Collaborating with hospitality, FOH and Client Delivery teams to prepare for surprise-and-delight moments and ensure smooth transitions
• Sharing best practice and supporting the upskilling of Assistant Managers across the department
• Taking ownership for service audits, lounge speed‑of‑service KPIs, and weekly space management

This is a full‑time, on‑site position based in our Knightsbridge store, including regular weekend shifts.

About You

You’ll be a confident, emotionally intelligent leader with a deep understanding of luxury service and the expectations of high‑net‑worth clients. Your attention to detail, hands‑on approach, and ability to lead from the front will make you a trusted presence on the floor and a role model for the wider team.

You will :

• Have proven experience working with private or UHNW clients in a high‑end or luxury environment
• Be confident managing people, coaching on the job and handling performance conversations professionally
• Thrive in fast‑paced, high‑touch environments and adapt quickly to last‑minute changes
• Be organised and service‑focused, with excellent attention to detail and time management
• Be comfortable managing space, event timelines and multiple client interactions at once
• Be resilient, self‑aware, and able to maintain high standards under pressure
• Be flexible to work evenings, weekends and across a dynamic events and hospitality calendar
