Where Style Meets Passion and Opportunity

At Sassanova, we do more than sell fashion—we create experiences. As a small but thriving boutique retailer, we pride ourselves on offering a personalized, fun, and one-of-a-kind shopping journey for our customers. If you’re a driven, entrepreneurial leader with a passion for fashion, people, and building something truly special, this is the opportunity for you.

Imagine being part of a team where your ideas matter, your creativity shines, and your leadership makes an immediate impact. At Sassanova, you won’t just manage a store—you’ll help shape the future of a growing brand while working in a collaborative, close-knit environment that feels more like family than corporate.

About the Role

We’re looking for a dynamic and entrepreneurial Store Manager to lead our team, drive sales, and deliver unforgettable client experiences. You’ll be the heart and soul of the store, responsible for everything from inspiring your team to delivering on goals and building relationships with customers and the community.

What You’ll Do

• Be the Face of Sassanova: Represent our brand with pride and passion, cultivating meaningful relationships with clients, team members, and the community.
• Lead the Team to Success: Inspire and motivate your team with clear goals, coaching, and by setting the example with your own sales and customer service excellence.
• Deliver an Elevated Experience: Ensure every customer leaves with more than just a great purchase—they leave with an unforgettable experience.
• Own Your Business: Manage all aspects of store operations, from hiring and training to visual merchandising and driving sales goals.
• Engage with the Community: Collaborate with local charities, host events, and build our reputation as a destination for style and connection.

Why Sassanova?

This isn’t just another retail management job—it’s your chance to lead in a company that values creativity, individuality, and personal connections. At Sassanova, you’ll enjoy:

The Opportunity to Lead with Autonomy: Forget corporate red tape—here, your ideas and decisions matter.

A Passionate Team: Work alongside a talented, supportive team that loves what they do.

Room to Grow: As we expand, so do your opportunities. Be part of our journey as we grow from four stores to more in the coming years.

A Culture of Kindness: We believe in kindness—toward our customers, our team, and our community.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience: 3+ years of retail management preferred.
• Entrepreneurial Spirit: Self-starters who thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
• Sales-Driven Leadership: Proven track record of exceeding sales goals and motivating teams to do the same.
• Client-First Mentality: Commitment to providing exceptional service and creating long-term customer relationships.
• Adaptability: Able to pivot, multitask, and prioritize in an ever-changing retail environment.

What You’ll Need

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.
• Exceptional communication and problem-solving skills.
• High energy and a positive attitude.
• Flexibility to work weekends and holidays as needed.
• Competitive Compensation – Your hard work deserves great rewards.
• Generous Employee Discounts – Love fashion? Enjoy discounts on our curated collections.
• Performance-based bonuses – Get rewarded for your contributions & achievements.
• Savings & Investment Plans – ecure your future with options like a Roth IRA.
• Inspiring Work Environment – Be part of a positive, energetic team that supports one another.
• Career Growth Opportunities – As we expand, you’ll have the chance to grow with us.
• Impactful Leadership Role – Lead with autonomy in a role where your decisions and contributions directly influence the success of the store.
