We’re recruiting on behalf of a highly respected, award-winning luxury beauty brand, founded by one of the world’s most celebrated makeup artists, known for its skin-loving formulas, cult lipsticks, and critically acclaimed complexion products. Their first New York pop-up launched in late May, and we’re looking for an exceptional store manager to lead it through to the end of November.
The role:-
This is a genuinely autonomous position. With the core team based in London, you’ll be the brand’s eyes, ears and decision‑maker on the ground, a mini business owner who can handle anything from a tricky customer situation to a stock shortage, without needing to be hand‑held. You’ll lead a team of 10–11 people and be accountable for driving toward a $1.5–2M revenue target over the pop‑up’s six‑month run.
What you’ll own:-
- Day‑to‑day leadership of a team of 10–11, including hiring, coaching and performance
- Revenue performance against a $1.5–2M target across the pop‑up’s lifetime
- Delivering a premium, on‑brand customer experience worthy of a luxury beauty brand
- Operational problem‑solving , stock, facilities, scheduling, with minimal escalation
- Being the brand’s trusted representative at the store, with the confidence to act independently
What we’re looking for:-
- Proven experience managing a premium or luxury beauty retail environment, not just time served, but real depth
- The confidence to handle complex people situations, from team challenges to demanding customers, calmly and effectively
- An entrepreneurial mindset, you don’t wait to be told, you make it happen
- Strong commercial instincts and a track record of hitting (and exceeding) sales targets
- Genuine passion for premium beauty and an affinity with the world of artistry‑led, luxury cosmetics
Essential:
you must have direct beauty industry experience, whether that’s a background as a makeup artist, or experience working within or for a beauty brand. Applications without this will not be considered.
