Summary

I possess a strong set of skills that contribute to efficient store management and team success. With expertise in problem-solving, strategic planning, and leadership, I excel in overseeing staff recruitment, onboarding, and training. My ability to build and lead teams is complemented by excellent communication skills and experience in staff supervision and scheduling. I am well-versed in inventory management, stock control, point of sale operation, and sales reporting and analysis. Additionally, I have a keen eye for floor layout design, visual merchandising, and managing in-store campaigns, all while ensuring effective complaint management and maintaining a positive customer experience.

During my tenure as Floor Manager, I successfully led my team to achieve the highest Adiclub sign-ups in Europe, one of our key performance indicators (KPIs), and also spearheaded the district's top performance in MPOS usage.
