Operational Management (Post-Opening):

  • Oversee all daily store operations, ensuring premium customer service and sales performance.
  • Manage integrated inventory across physical store, e-commerce, and live selling platforms (Whatnot, Fanatics Live, etc.).
  • Recruit, train, and lead a high-performing sales and event team.
  • Plan and execute events: product launches, in-store activations, and live breaking sessions.
  • Maintain strong vendor and distributor relationships to secure exclusive products and promotional opportunities.
  • Monitor KPIs, generate performance reports, and present strategic recommendations to ownership.
  • Ensure compliance with company policies, safety protocols, and local regulations.
  • Collaborate with marketing to align campaigns, promotions, and social media content with business objectives.
  • Stay ahead of industry trends, grading standards, and collector preferences to keep The Card Cellar competitive.

Requirements:

  • Strong leadership, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
  • Experience implementing operational systems and processes from scratch.
  • Ability to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends.
  • Proficiency in business reporting, budgeting, and vendor negotiations.
  • English fluency required; Spanish is a plus.
