As our Apparel Manager, you'll lead the Clothing, Footwear, and Accessories department, making sure customers can find what they want, when they want it.
Reporting to the Store Manager, you'll:
- Lead, coach and develop your team, with a clear focus on building future leaders
- Apply visual merchandising guides to keep the department looking sharp and on-brand
- Keep stock well presented and available, including making sure the right sizes are on the shelf
- Review sales and profit performance weekly and adjust your approach to hit targets
- Build a sales-focused culture through regular coaching and feedback
- Keep the stockroom organised so your team can find and restock items quickly
- Make sure Click & Collect orders are picked accurately and on time
- Support a safe working environment and help maintain audit standards
- Pitch in with store opening and closing, and occasionally take charge of the whole store
Some days you'll be setting up next season's range, other days you're coaching a team member, digging into sales numbers, or sorting a stock issue before the doors open. It's a role that keeps you on your toes.
Note: You must have valid right to work in New Zealand at the time of applying.
What You'll Bring
- Leadership experience, whether in retail or another team environment
- Drive, urgency and a genuine can-do attitude
- The ability to turn a plan into action and follow it through
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Comfort reviewing sales numbers and making decisions based on them
- A willingness to roll your sleeves up and support your team wherever needed
Experience in fashion, footwear or visual merchandising is a bonus, but we're just as interested in your leadership ability and attitude
At The Warehouse, we're all about making the good stuff affordable for everyone, while giving back to our communities and caring for the environment.
In return, you'll receive:
- A competitive salary
- A discount card valid across The Warehouse Group brands
- A paid day off on your birthday
- Career development opportunities within one of New Zealand's largest retail groups
If you're ready to take the next step in your retail leadership career, we'd love to hear from you.
