  • Keeping a close eye on store expenses and managing them with discipline
  • Overseeing stock management, replenishment, inventory counts, and stockroom organisation

  • A proven track record of leading and developing a small team
  • Strong retail knowledge across operations, visual merchandising, clienteling, and team development
  • Experience in hiring, training, and getting the best out of people
  • Comfortable with P&L, budgets, and using data to drive decisions
