  • Prepare and deliver senior-level presentations and progress updates to retail leaders, translating insights into actionable recommendations.
  • Identify when region-level, area-level, or store-level interventions are required, and prepare detailed breakdowns, content, and business cases to support approval, in conjunction with commercial finance business partners.
  • Leverage hands-on retail leadership experience to guide pragmatic productivity improvements at store level.
  • Demonstrate an independence of thought and approach allowing you to use the data available to challenge, where appropriate, the retail leaders to take the required actions to improve optimal spending of the labor budget.
