Store Business Manager

**About Us**

Circonomy exists to create a world without waste, including human potential. We’re making circularity the new normal, by mobilising dormant goods through collection, refurbishment, repair and repurposing services while making it easy to shop and procure affordable, sustainable, quality products through our outlets and online channels.

We love what we do, and care a lot - for each other, our customers and our planet. We’re ambitious, and (a little) impatient, motivated by the possibilities but staying grounded in the progress we’re making. We work at pace, because we have no time to waste (But we don’t cut corners along the way). We are unapologetically agents of change - we’re tackling complex issues that need new solutions - creating, innovating, iterating and enabling.

**About the role**

We’re looking for an experienced Store Business Manager to lead and grow our Circonomy Outlet in Brisbane, which caters to individuals, households, businesses and wholesale customer needs. Circonomy Outlets are critical to Circonomy achieving our ambitious goals, by making it easy for customers to access affordable, quality, sustainable products while providing a unique, but impressive, customer experience that is comparable to leading retailers.

The primary purpose of this role is to lead Circonomy’s Brisbane Retail Outlet, transforming the current operations by implementing retail standards that customers experience at other leading retailers, executed with an entrepreneurial spirit that embraces the unique and dynamic nature of Circonomy’s always changing supply chain and merchandise (or as we call it, ‘surprise chain’). In the process, building a team of retail professionals and delivering results aligned with Circonomy’s growth ambitions.

This is a unique opportunity to lead the retail operations in one of Australia’s first mixed-use circular economy precincts, collaborating closely with the refurbishment and response squad teams, the Circonomy Leadership Team and marketing and supply chain teams, to design and execute strategic and tactical sales and experience initiatives across instore and online channels.

**What we’re looking for**

A passionate leader with a shared purpose to create a better future by leveraging your commercial acumen to create change that delivers positive social and environmental outcomes. You lead with a safety & well-being first mindset, that values high performance as a way to achieve a great employee and customer experience.

Someone that thrives in an environment where no two days are the same, and that embraces the opportunities that a unique, innovative and first-of-its kind business brings, using your customer mindset, creativity and entrepreneurial spirit to contribute to and execute on our ambitious growth strategy.

Having worked for a successful national retailer with experience in leading and developing teams, your passion for providing exceptional customer experience, accountability and experience with P&L has helped deliver a track record for driving profitable sales growth.

You are excited about the opportunity to take our retail operations to the next level - you see the possibilities for the future, and the career development this brings, and are eager to be hands on as we create a world without waste.

This is a permanent full-time role based at our Morningside Circular Economy Precinct, and may involve working some weekends. If it doesn’t quite fit what you are after, let us know - we’re about finding the right person and finding a way to make it work for you.

**What’s on offer**
- A people-first and purpose-led culture, that values diversity, inclusivity and flexibility
- Competitive renumeration comparable to the retail industry, in a high growth environment
- Ongoing training and development opportunities to progress and evolve your career
- Generous product discounts across an always changing product mix
