Job description

Lead the team. Own the store. Help us create an experience our guests won’t forget.

Our Store Manager is at the heart of the day-to-day Coastal Cowgirls operation. You’ll oversee our Hyde Park Village storefront + off-site event operations, lead and support our retail team, and make sure everything from staffing and inventory to customer experience and business operations runs smoothly.

But being our Store Manager is about more than keeping the store running.

You’re setting the standard for our team and the experience our guests receive.

WHAT IT’S LIKE TO BE OUR STORE MANAGER

One minute you might be building the team schedule or checking inventory. The next, you could be coaching a team member, jumping onto the sales floor during a rush, solving a customer concern, or coordinating with our Events team for an upcoming activation.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who is comfortable managing the details behind the scenes and leading from the floor.

Break it down for me:

• Oversee the day-to-day operations of our Hyde Park Village storefront
• Lead, motivate, and support our retail team
• Manage employee scheduling, staffing, and store coverage
• Oversee inventory organization, replenishment, and accuracy for the store and private events
• Maintain store organization, presentation, cleanliness, and overall brand standards
• Ensure every guest receives a welcoming, engaging, and memorable CCC experience
• Professionally handle customer questions, concerns, and service issues
• Establish and reinforce store procedures, team expectations, and accountability
• Support recruiting, interviewing, and hiring as our team continues to grow
• Partner with leadership on new-hire onboarding, training, and team development
• Coordinate staffing, inventory, and operational needs for private events and activations
• Monitor store performance and identify opportunities to improve efficiency, customer experience, and sales
• Support company launches, events, activations, and other operational needs
• Lead by example and jump in on the sales floor whenever your team needs you

YOU MIGHT BE OUR COWGIRL IF...

• You’re a natural leader who knows how to motivate, coach, and hold a team accountable
• You’re highly organized and can confidently manage multiple priorities at once
• You don’t wait to be told what needs to be done — you see it, own it, and handle it
• You’re comfortable making confident day-to-day decisions while knowing when to involve leadership
• You genuinely enjoy working with people and creating an exceptional customer experience
• You communicate clearly and professionally, even when conversations aren’t easy
• You stay calm, adaptable, and solutions-focused when priorities shift or challenges arise
• You’re detail-oriented and take pride in keeping things organized and running smoothly
• You enjoy working collaboratively while also being comfortable taking ownership
• You’re excited to help strengthen processes and grow alongside a fast-growing brand
• You’re a hands-on leader who leads by example and is always willing to jump in alongside your team

WHAT WE ARE LOOKIN' FOR:

• 2+ years of retail management, store leadership, or comparable customer-facing management experience preferred
• Demonstrated experience leading and developing a team
• Experience with employee scheduling, inventory management, and day-to-day retail operations
• Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to effectively prioritize and manage multiple responsibilities in a fast-paced environment
• Availability to work a flexible retail schedule, including weekends and select evenings or special events as business needs require
• Comfortable working both independently and collaboratively with leadership and other departments
• Experience within fashion, apparel, experiential retail, hospitality, events, or a lifestyle brand is a plus
• Familiarity with retail POS, scheduling, and inventory management systems is preferred

WHAT ELSE YOU SHOULD KNOW:

• This is a full-time, hourly, in-person position at our Hyde Park Village storefront in Tampa, Florida, averaging 36–40 hours per week.
• Regular weekend availability is required, along with flexibility for select evenings, private events and special activations based on business needs.
• We prefer 2+ years of retail management, store leadership or comparable customer-facing management experience. You should have demonstrated experience directly leading a team, including employee scheduling, along with experience in inventory management, day-to-day operations, and meeting sales KPIs.
• Experience with retail POS, scheduling and inventory management systems is preferred. A background in fashion, apparel, experiential retail, hospitality, events or lifestyle brands is a plus.
• And because we’re growing, this role extends far beyond the storefront. You’ll be involved in private events, brand activations, collaborations, and other exciting experiences that make Coastal Cowgirls anything but a traditional retail environment.

BENEFITS + PERKS:

• Performance-based bonus opportunities
• Generous employee discount on Coastal Cowgirls Collective products and merchandise
• Friends & family discount opportunities
• Complimentary onboarding apparel and hats to represent the Coastal Cowgirls brand
• Opportunities to travel for select private events, pop-ups, activations, and special experiences
• Opportunities to participate in high-profile events, collaborations, influencer activations, and brand partnerships
• A creative, fast-paced, and experience-driven work environment
• Opportunities for professional growth and expanded responsibility as the company continues to grow
• Hands-on experience across experiential retail, events, styling, brand activations, and customer experience
• A collaborative team culture centered around creativity, community, and creating memorable experiences
