As Country Manager Netherlands, you are ultimately responsible for the commercial and operational performance of our 89 WE® stores in the Netherlands. You lead 5 District Managers and translate our European retail strategy into a clear direction and concrete priorities for the Dutch market.
You hold P&L responsibility and steer on revenue, costs, profitability, budgets, forecasts and operational KPIs. You identify where opportunities lie, where performance is falling behind and what is needed to structurally improve results.
But strong retail is about more than numbers. You are regularly present in our stores, understand our customer and have a strong feel for product. You see how teams, visual merchandising, staffing, service and customer experience come together to make a difference. You combine what you see and hear on the shop floor with data to make the right commercial decisions.
An important part of your role is to further professionalise our Dutch retail organisation. You bring structure and a clear rhythm to the way we lead the business, improve processes and create clarity around responsibilities. You make sure agreements are not only made, but also implemented and embedded.
Strong performance starts with strong leadership. Together with your District Managers, you build a strong management team. You coach and develop them, give trust and autonomy, while also setting clear expectations and holding people accountable for responsibilities and results. You bring focus and clarity, challenge existing ways of working and turn improvements into concrete action. Together with your team, you build a professional, commercial and results-driven retail organisation.
In this role, you report to the European Sales Director and work closely with colleagues across our European retail organisation.
