Store Manager Jobs in Oregon (NOW HIRING)

Build a Strong Team. Serve the Community. Lead with Purpose.

At Hennick's, what we do is about more than building materials.

A stack of lumber becomes a family’s first home. A load of fencing protects a ranch that has been in the family for generations. A handful of boards becomes a treehouse where lifelong memories are made.

These are not simply projects—they are moments that matter.

We are seeking an experienced, community-minded Store Manager to lead our Lakeside location. This is an opportunity for someone who takes ownership, develops people, understands the business, and wants to make a meaningful difference for customers, employees, and the community.

The Store Manager is responsible for the overall leadership and daily operation of the Lakeside store. This position leads the store team, delivers an exceptional customer experience, drives sales and profitability, manages inventory and expenses, and ensures the store operates safely and consistently with Company standards.

The Store Manager is expected to think like an owner—identifying opportunities, solving problems, developing talent, and making responsible decisions that support the long-term success of the store and Gold Beach Lumber.

• Recruit, onboard, train, coach, and retain a motivated, high-performing store team.
• Establish clear expectations and hold employees accountable with fairness and consistency.
• Conduct meaningful performance conversations and help employees develop their skills and careers.

• Create action plans based on sales data, customer needs, and market trends.

• Build lasting relationships with customers by understanding their projects, anticipating their needs, and providing knowledgeable support.
• Set a visible example of friendly, responsive, and solutions-focused service.
• Address customer questions and concerns promptly, fairly, and professionally.
• Ensure the store is clean, organized, well-merchandised, and easy for customers to shop.
• Help the team understand that every customer interaction is an opportunity to build trust.

• Oversee daily store operations, including staffing, scheduling, merchandising, inventory, receiving, facility standards, and customer service.
• Monitor inventory levels and coordinate with purchasing and suppliers to maintain product availability while reducing shortages and excess inventory.
• Protect Company assets and ensure established operational and financial controls are followed.
• Partner with the Support Office and other store leaders to implement Company programs and share effective practices.
• Balance local decision-making with Company-wide standards, priorities, and goals.

• Maintain a safe environment for employees, customers, and vendors.
• Ensure compliance with Company safety policies and applicable health and safety requirements.
• Conduct safety conversations, correct hazards promptly, and reinforce safe work practices.
• Lead by example, demonstrating that safety is a daily responsibility and never a shortcut.
