Zachary Daniels are proud to be representing an innovative, modern and fast-growing retail brand as they search for a highly capable General Manager to lead their next chapter of transformation. This is a unique opportunity to join a culturally relevant, multi-channel retail business with a strong digital audience, a loyal global customer base and the ambition to scale significantly over the coming 12-24 months.
The brand currently operates at around £5-7m turnover with a talented team of 15-20, and is now ready for a strategic, hands-on and commercially minded General Manager who has experience operating at, or scaling towards, a £50m+ retail environment.

The Role:
As General Manager, you will take full P&L ownership and lead all commercial, operational and financial functions. You will oversee ecommerce, logistics, fulfilment, data/analytics, finance, retail operations and customer experience. Your role will involve creating scalable processes, optimising performance, improving margin and ensuring that every area of the business is aligned to a data-led, commercially rigorous strategy.
You will also be responsible for developing, mentoring and expanding a multi-disciplinary team. Setting the tone for an engaged, accountable and high-performance culture will be essential, as will your ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution.
Key Responsibilities:
· Full P&L ownership, budgeting and forecasting
· Lead all operational and commercial teams across web, retail, finance, logistics and data
· Identify growth opportunities across wholesale, international expansion and brand partnerships
· Drive KPI performance: conversion, AOV, return rates, inventory turn, customer experience
· Build scalable systems, processes and reporting structures
· Lead and develop a team of 15-20, creating clear pathways for career growth
· Work closely with senior leadership to shape strategy and brand direction
About You:
· Proven success managing or scaling a £50m+ retail operation
· Deep experience across ecommerce, operations, finance and commercial performance
