Description

As Assistant Store Manager of our flagship on Oxford Street, you’ll be at the heart of one of the most exciting retail environments in the UK. You’ll support the Store Manager in driving performance, shaping the customer experience, and leading a large, dynamic team.

This isn’t a typical Assistant Manager role — it’s a platform. A launchpad. A chance to operate at a senior level, with exposure to directors and leaders who regularly visit the store to see what “best in class” looks like.

About You

You’re not just passionate about retail and product — you live and breathe it. You understand what exceptional service looks like, and you know how to inspire a team to deliver it consistently.

You’ll bring:

  • Proven leadership experience in fashion retail

  • A track record of driving service standards and team performance

  • Confidence operating in a high‑profile, fast‑paced environment

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to influence at all levels

  • A customer‑obsessed mindset with a sharp eye for detail

  • The ambition to grow into a senior leadership role

Ideal for candidates currently working as: Store Management especially those ready for a bigger stage.

You’ll be responsible for:

  • Delivering a world‑class customer experience that sets the benchmark for the entire estate

  • Leading, inspiring, and developing a high‑performing team

  • Owning key operational and commercial responsibilities

  • Acting as Store Manager when required, confidently stepping into full leadership

  • Driving innovation, service excellence, and continuous improvement

  • Representing the store during senior leadership visits and brand partner walk‑throughs

We’ll invest heavily in your development, offering structured training, regular coaching, and opportunities to progress into senior management. Many of our leaders started exactly where you are now.

Why This Role Is Special

  • It’s our flagship store — the most visible, high‑impact location in the business

  • You’ll work closely with senior directors and brand partners

  • You’ll influence retail standards across the entire estate

  • You’ll be part of a high‑performing, passionate team

  • You’ll have genuine opportunities to progress quickly

This is the kind of role that transforms careers.

Diversity & Inclusion

We’re committed to building teams that reflect the diversity of our customers and communities. Different perspectives make us stronger, more creative, and more connected. We want people who bring their whole selves to work and feel inspired by the people around them.

Our Recruitment Process

If your application stands out, we’ll invite you for a face‑to‑face conversation in store. It’s informal, open, and honest — a chance for us to get to know you and for you to experience the energy of the flagship environment.

We want to hear your story, your ambitions, and why this role excites you.
