Visual Assistant Store Manager - Sawgrass Outlet, Sunrise, FL

Who We Are

In 1998, we were stuck behind desk jobs we didn’t like … and we were miserable. So we quit. We tossed out business suits for bathing suits, got our wisdom teeth pulled while we still had coverage and signed up for every credit card we could. On the same day, within ten minutes of each other, we walked out of our jobs, grabbed a drink and started chasing the American Dream. Twenty five years in and some things have changed, but we’re the same at our core. We’re still having a ton of fun, hanging with Real Good People, and sharing the gift of the Vineyard with everyone we can.

Who You Are

“Every day should feel this good” is inherent in your nature and you’re here with the service-oriented mentality to bring those same feelings to your crew and customer. Whether or not someone is watching doesn’t matter to you, you understand that you set the tone for how your day is going to play out. You bring positivity, enthusiasm and a natural drive to be better today than you were yesterday. Like Shep & Ian, you’re not afraid to jump feet first into the unknown; in fact you embrace the challenge of learning new things and being adaptable. You understand how to put all of the pieces together to create the bigger picture and are able to prioritize conflicting tasks to successfully achieve the anticipated results.

What You’ll Do

While at the end of the day you understand that we are here to sell clothes and have some fun, you will hold yourself and your team accountable to achieving your sales goals and maintaining our brand ethos.

You motivate and inspire the team to uphold brand standards through merchandising and styling by explaining the why behind the expectations and the results you can drive.

You’re constantly building on your business acumen by analyzing reporting tools to merchandise to under/over performing categories. When you see an opportunity to do something different in hopes to get a better result, you act on it. When you act on it, you’re able to effectively communicate the results. When you are able to effectively communicate the results, you receive feedback to grow some more. You’re not comfortable unless you’re uncomfortable.

Your passion for visual standards and product focuses is contagious and you keep your team, existing and new, up to date with training and product knowledge.

You love a new compass set and get excited to lead the team to support company product strategies and drive results.

Finding inspiration from Shep and Ian’s entrepreneurial spirit, you propose, test and measure creative solutions for sell-through and fluctuating inventory levels to drive results!

You know “ teamwork makes the dream work” and you can’t be successful at this role

without your team! You are excited to share merchandising strategies with all levels of management to develop a well-rounded leadership team.

Left brain? Right brain? How about both… You will collaborate with your operations manager on upcoming transfers/markdowns/in-transit product to prepare for floor placement and potential fixture moves.
