Exciting opportunity for an ACT Area Manager, and multiple Store Managers!
Who are we?
Rockwear is the fastest growing women's activewear brand in the market, part of the global powerhouse that is the Foschini and Retail Apparel Group. We pride ourselves on our people, our customers and our culture, and are genuinely passionate about an activewear lifestyle. We ensure our clothing is high-quality, functional and fashionable - whether enduring a rigorous workout or beating out steps on the pavement in-between walking, running and brunching.
Born and nurtured by one of Australia’s pioneering fitness instructors, we’ve been encouraging women to harness their inner personal strength and live an active life on their own terms since 1991. There is no standard formula to follow. Everyone is invited and everyone is included in our Rockwear Nation.

You'll be responsible for driving sales, recruiting new team members, training, inducting and maintaining the highest level of customer standards and operational performance across three stores in the ACT and a regional location.
This is a hands-on role, which will see you rotating between each store location to work closely with store management and casual team members to foster a culture of positivity, professionalism and strong communication.
Never a dull moment, you'll ensure each store is upholding merchandising standards and get actively involved in growing the brand, identifying and participating in local area marketing opportunities.

Interested in joining the Rockwear movement?
We're looking for someone who's genuinely interested in the brand and isn't afraid to lead by example, get involved with all aspects of the store, and spend time on the floor with your team and with customers.

Although not essential, experience within the women's fashion or activewear industry will be highly regarded.
Your team is going to be your greatest asset, and you'll be passionate about developing their skills and promoting from within through successful hiring, training, coaching, retention, succession planning and team motivation.
These are high-volume stores, and you will need to be capable of making smart business decisions, keeping calm under pressure and acting with urgency as you juggle multiple priorities and stakeholders. You'll be flexible but extremely organised and have high attention to detail to ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
Ultimately, we want energetic leaders, motivators, and team members who want to 'make it happen', represent a healthy, active lifestyle and truly live for our culture and values.
