@sidneysoares
Experienced retail manager skilled in team leadership, inventory control, and customer-focused sales strategy.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced retail manager with a decade of leadership experience at Subway and hands-on operations experience at Starbucks. I specialize in staff recruitment, training, and developing teams to deliver consistent, high-quality customer service.
Throughout my career I implemented inventory control measures, coordinated supply orders, and managed daily financial and cash reporting to improve efficiency and reduce waste. I also designed and executed promotional strategies that boosted customer engagement and sales during seasonal campaigns.
I have strong capabilities in visual merchandising, health and safety compliance, and store opening/closing procedures, and I maintain high standards of cleanliness and organisation. I value continuous improvement and staff development, conducting performance reviews and rewarding high achievers.
I hold a Bachelor degree in Human Resources from UniAteneu (Fortaleza, Brazil) and am fluent in Portuguese, with working ability in Spanish and basic English. I’m eager to leverage my retail management experience to drive operational excellence and growth in future roles.
