Store Manager: SET (pop up)

About the Brand

Hey! We’re SET. We’re here to simplify the way you get dressed. In an effort to be more effortless, we design athleisure that blurs the line between form and function. Whether you're getting active or actively chilling on the couch, our elevated essentials take you there. We’re a community first and a brand second. Seriously. Everything we create is with you in mind— from styles and colors, to what's to come and what's coming back. We believe open communication is key, because we’re at our best when you feel yours. We love to share what's going on BTS (behind the SET). Production planning, photoshoots, business day-to-day, what's up next, the good, the bad and the challenging. We're big on keeping it real and we'll always share the "why," because you deserve it.

About the Role

We are seeking an innovative and results-driven Store Manager for our boutique powered by the Leap Platform, located coming to Bouldin Creek June 2026 through October 2026. This leader will balance strategic business ownership with hands-on, client-focused leadership—driving sales performance while cultivating a warm, elevated in-store experience.

You will lead with clarity, empathy, and accountability, recruiting and developing a high-performing team through thoughtful hiring, coaching, and performance management. By setting clear expectations and leading by example on the sales floor, you will foster a collaborative, service-driven culture rooted in trust, professionalism, and brand pride.

As a local market expert, you will leverage community partnerships, events, and networking opportunities to drive traffic, deepen client relationships, and expand brand awareness. You will also partner with neighboring stores and execute impactful in-store activations that grow the customer base and strengthen community ties.

Operational excellence is central to this role. You will ensure brand standards are upheld across visual merchandising, cleanliness, inventory management, and shipment processing with strong attention to detail and consistency. The ideal candidate thrives in an independent, fast-paced retail environment, confidently managing daily operations including opening/closing procedures, scheduling, and payroll accuracy.

This role may extend beyond your primary location, occasionally supporting other Leap-powered stores within the market. Responsibilities may include assisting with new store openings, onboarding team members, providing sales floor coverage, or leading community activations.
