What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my leadership skills and drive sales growth while fostering a positive team environment.

I am a dedicated and results-driven Retail Manager with extensive experience in leading high-performing teams and driving sales growth. My career has been marked by a commitment to exceptional customer satisfaction and operational excellence. At Tekkie Town, I successfully managed a team of over 15 retail associates, fostering an environment of productivity and customer service excellence.

During my tenure, I developed and implemented strategic sales initiatives that resulted in a remarkable 20% increase in monthly sales revenue. My focus on inventory management has also led to a significant reduction in carrying costs by 15%, ensuring that our stock levels were optimized and stockouts were minimized. I am passionate about training and developing staff to achieve their best, which has been a key factor in my success as a manager.
