Job description

Director of Retail
Location: Southern California (Hybrid)
Reports To: General Manager

The Opportunity

A rapidly growing lifestyle consumer brand is launching its owned retail channel and seeking an entrepreneurial Director of Retail to build the retail organization from the ground up.

This is a rare opportunity to create the retail playbook from day one-leading the launch of the company's first stores while establishing the operational foundation, talent strategy, and scalable processes needed to support long-term growth.

The ideal leader enjoys building, thrives in founder-led environments, and is equally comfortable setting strategy and rolling up their sleeves to execute.

What You'll Do Build & Scale Retail

  • Develop and execute the owned retail strategy alongside executive leadership.

  • Lead the successful launch of the company's first retail locations.

  • Create scalable retail operating procedures, playbooks, and best practices.

  • Help shape the long-term growth strategy as the retail fleet expands.

Retail Operations

  • Initially lead the flagship store while establishing operational excellence.

  • Drive store performance through strong execution, customer experience, and financial management.

  • Monitor key retail KPIs including sales, conversion, payroll, traffic, inventory, UPT, AOV, and profitability.

  • Continuously improve operational efficiency and the in-store experience.

Leadership & Talent

  • Recruit, hire, onboard, coach, and develop high-performing retail teams.

  • Build the retail organizational structure as additional stores open.

  • Develop future store leaders and cultivate a strong culture of accountability and service.

Brand & Community

  • Create engaging retail experiences that reflect the brand's lifestyle and values.

  • Partner with Marketing on local events and community initiatives.

  • Help establish each location as a destination within its local market.

Cross-Functional Partnership

  • Collaborate closely with Merchandising, Planning, Marketing, eCommerce, Operations, and Finance.

  • Support assortment planning, inventory strategy, forecasting, and product launches.

  • Utilize retail analytics and POS reporting to drive business decisions and identify opportunities for improvement.

What We're Looking For

  • 8+ years of progressive retail leadership experience.

  • Experience leading multi-unit retail operations.

  • Proven success opening new stores and helping scale a retail organization.

  • Background in founder-led, entrepreneurial, or high-growth consumer brands.

  • Strong understanding of retail operations, merchandising, labor planning, inventory management, and financial performance.

  • Experience with Shopify POS or similar retail technology platforms is preferred.

  • Exceptional leadership, coaching, communication, and project management skills.

  • Willingness to travel regularly between retail locations.

Ideal Background

This opportunity is ideal for an emerging Director of Retail, District Manager, or Area Manager who has played a meaningful role in growing a retail business and is ready to own an entire retail channel.

The successful candidate combines strategic thinking with a hands-on approach, has experience opening stores, building teams, developing operational processes, and partnering cross-functionally to drive business results. They are energized by building something from the ground up and understand how to create memorable retail experiences that strengthen both brand and community.
