What I'm looking for

I seek a retail leadership role where I can drive sales and profitability, optimize inventory and operations, mentor teams, and contribute to a customer-focused, data-driven retail culture.

I am an experienced retail management professional with over 8 years of progressive leadership in fast-paced international fashion and sports retail, having held roles at TATA Trent (Westside) and Adidas.

I have a proven record of driving double-digit sales growth (15–20% YoY), improving core KPIs such as UPT and ATV, and maximizing profitability through strategic merchandising, promotions, and stock optimization.

My operational strengths include inventory control and shrinkage reduction (15–22% improvements), SOP compliance, POS/SAP/ETP systems, and advanced Excel-driven KPI analysis that inform corrective actions.

I am passionate about building and mentoring high-performing teams—leading training initiatives that boosted team productivity by 25% and customer loyalty sign-ups by 20%—to deliver exceptional customer service and sustained retail results.
