  • Recruit, train, and develop a high-performing retail team.
  • Set clear performance expectations and hold team members accountable.
  • Provide coaching and ongoing training to improve sales skills.

Merchandising & Store Presentation

The store must always be commercially ready to trade.

Key Deliverables

  • Maintain high visual merchandising standards.
  • Ensure product displays drive customer engagement and sales.
  • Execute promotions and campaigns effectively.
  • Ensure stock is visible, accessible, and properly presented.

Operational Excellence

The store must operate efficiently and professionally.

Key Deliverables

  • Manage stock control and inventory accuracy.
  • Implement effective loss prevention practices.
  • Ensure compliance with operational procedures and policies.
  • Deliver accurate reporting and maintain administrative controls.

  • Proven track record of consistently meeting or exceeding sales targets.
  • Demonstrated ability to grow store revenue through commercial decision-making.
  • Experience managing, coaching, and developing retail teams.
  • Strong understanding of retail trading principles, merchandising, and stock management.
  • Experience analysing sales data and implementing strategies to improve store performance.
