Store Manager - Eastbourne

When a customer walks through our doors, we want them to be wowed – and that’s down to you and your team. As a Clarks Store Manager, you’ll be at the very heart of our business, championing a much-loved brand.

The role

You’ll be at the forefront of the Clarks business, leading a team in our Eastbourne store. Thanks to you, it’ll be a great place to be – for customers and team members alike. You’ll create a lively, friendly atmosphere, where everyone feels welcome. It’s a job for a great manager and brand ambassador – someone who champions Clarks and inspires teams to achieve. As a skilled professional, you’ll be ready to lead people through the full service cycle, right through to closing a sale and ensuring a great customer experience. You know about every element of the process: tracking P&L, planning trading events, minimizing costs and delivering KPIs. However, it’s the customer experience you create that will really send sales sky-high.

About you

An experienced retail manager, you have a track record of commercial success. You’re an inspiring leader with strong communication skills who can get the best out of people. If you’ve worked in Fashion or Footwear before, fantastic – but it’s not absolutely essential. It’s more important that you can lead teams, promote brands and establish outstanding customer service. Organised and ready to adapt to challenges, you have the expertise you need to meet targets, manage P&L and tackle day-to-day operations.

About Clarks

Clarks, based in Somerset, England, has been at the forefront of innovative shoemaking since its foundation in 1825, when brothers James and Cyrus Clark made a slipper from sheepskin off-cuts. Sparking revolutions and defining generations, Clarks’ archive of over 22,000 pairs includes the inimitable Desert Boot and Wallabee – and a ground-breaking combination of invention and craftsmanship remains at the heart of what the brand does now. Cutting-edge collaborations with cultural icons and KOLs, taking strides in social change, reimagining legendary silhouettes, and making shoes that move with the world ahead – Clarks is never standing still.

The benefits

As well as a rewarding career, development opportunities and a competitive salary, you’ll also enjoy a generous holiday allowance and the opportunity to join the company pension scheme.

We love hearing from great people
