The Shop Manager’s role is about setting your shop and your team up for success, creating an environment where each customer receives the exceptionally high level of service that lies at the heart of the Bravissimo experience and they leave the shop feeling amazing.

You will take full responsibility for the success of the shop, both the commercial results and the leadership and motivation of your team to perform and develop to their full potential.
