This unique brand captures the essence and spirit of the piercing industry, balancing an unforgettable ear-piercing experience with the most desirable jewellery to wear. Already operating a number of successful concessions within a nationally admired department store group, the company's growth continues at pace. There is undoubtedly a growing appetite among retailers to attract and retain the very best service providers and brands that are able to deliver exceptional customer experiences alongside genuine category expertise. This company has enjoyed a meteoric rise, and there remains significant market opportunity for its premier service and brand offering to continue setting new commercial standards.

Leading your team, you will maximise piercing studio utilisation, maintain the highest piercing standards, and ensure that every related sales opportunity, including jewellery sales and aftercare products, is offered professionally and appropriately. As additional concessions are expected to become operational, it will also be anticipated that these satellite locations will come under your management responsibility. Requirements: It is essential that you possess the drive and determination to ensure every aspect of retailing and customer service is delivered to the highest possible standard. Your previous experience will demonstrate strong leadership skills, enabling you to inspire and empower colleagues to consistently deliver, and exceed, the company's customer promise.
