Hush - Full Time Store Manager

We're looking for a passionate and commercially driven Manager to join our team in Bluewater. You'll take full ownership of your store's performance, creating an environment where customers love to shop, colleagues love to work and commercial results naturally follow.

Leading from the front, you'll create an exceptional customer experience by building genuine connections, inspiring customers through styling advice and ensuring every visit feels personal. You'll coach your team to confidently represent the Hush brand, delivering consistently warm, knowledgeable service that keeps customers coming back.

You'll use data and commercial insight to drive sales, identify opportunities and maximise store performance. From visual merchandising and stock management to rota planning, budgeting and operational excellence, you'll ensure every aspect of the store reflects the Hush brand and operates to the highest standard.

People are at the heart of everything you do. You'll recruit, coach and develop a high-performing team, creating an inclusive culture where everyone feels valued, supported and empowered to grow. Working closely with your Retail Manager, Head Office teams and external partners, you'll play an important role in shaping the continued success of Hush.

About You

You'll be an experienced retail leader with a passion for developing people, delivering exceptional customer experiences and driving commercial success.
