Oversee store performance across NSW & ACT, lead and develop high-performing teams and drive strategic growth.

Your New Employer:

Join a leading fashion brand recognised for its trend-focused collections and strong retail presence. Known for its commitment to style, service and consistency, the brand continues to grow while staying true to its identity. With a loyal and engaged customer base, they’re now seeking a driven State Manager to lead the NSW & ACT portfolio.

As State Manager, you’ll oversee the brand’s store network across NSW and ACT - leading a strong retail team to deliver commercial outcomes, great customer experience and support employee career growth.

This role is ideal for a strategic retail leader who enjoys building high performing teams, spending time visiting stores rather than sitting at a desk and is passionate building positive culture. 
  • Lead, support and develop store and area managers to deliver sales targets, team engagement and strong retail standards.
  • Take ownership of performance across the region, including P&L accountability, operational execution and customer satisfaction.
  • Recruit, onboard and coach talent, with a focus on succession planning and long term capability building.
  • Conduct regular store visits to maintain brand standards and connect with teams on the ground.
  • Review KPIs and commercial performance, identifying trends and opportunities to improve outcomes.
  • Partner with HR, finance and buying teams to align state activity with national business goals.
  • Oversee compliance across WHS, stock management and loss prevention.
  • Bring fresh thinking to a well-established brand, contributing to broader cultural and operational transformation.
Your Experience:
  • Prior success in a State Manager or Senior Regional Manager role within fashion, footwear, accessories or trend driven retail environments. 
  • Experience managing large teams and a wide store footprint across multiple regions.
  • Confident managing full P&L ownership, driving financial outcomes and operational excellence.
  • A natural leader who’s passionate about developing people and growing teams.
  • Experienced in fast-paced, high-volume environments where standards and culture matter.
  • A strong communicator who collaborates well with head office while driving regional success independently.
  • Driver’s license and flexibility to travel regularly within the state (travel allowance provided).
