Overview

As a Visual Operations Manager, you'll lead all visual and operational aspects of the store, managing a team of 4-20 depending on store size. This hybrid role blends creativity with strategy—you'll use sales data to inform layout decisions, craft compelling visual stories, and drive performance through effective merchandising.

Key Responsibilities

  • Strategically prioritize and execute daily merchandising tasks based on both visual needs and sales analytics.
  • Lead and execute floor moves, table and wall displays, mannequin styling, and seasonal / promotional set-ups in alignment with company guidelines.
  • Partner with the store management team to ensure merchandising supports business goals and elevates the customer experience.
  • Maintain cleanliness and operational readiness of displays, fixtures, and lighting.
  • Conduct regular visual and operations assessments with action plans for continued improvement.
  • Assist on the sales floor—supporting stylists, helping customers, managing fitting rooms, and operating the cash wrap.
  • Actively support recruitment and performance management by participating in all aspects of team development.

What We're Looking For

  • Minimum 2 years of experience in visual merchandising
  • Strong fashion sense and awareness of current trends
  • Ability to work independently and lead in a fast-paced team environment
  • Strong organizational, time management, and communication skills
  • Willingness to work early mornings and occasional late nights as needed
  • Open to flexible scheduling, including weekends and holidays

    • Physical Requirements

  • Able to lift up to 50 lbs.
  • Comfortable standing or walking for extended periods (10-12 hour shifts)

    • Travel Requirements

  • Willingness to occasionally travel to support other stores as needed

    • Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

    At AKIRA, we believe that treating everyone with respect and dignity is essential to creating an inclusive workplace. We value diverse backgrounds, ideas, and experiences—and strive to build a team where everyone feels they belong and can thrive.

    Benefits & Perks

    AKIRA offers competitive benefits for full-time employees, including Medical, Dental, Vision, Pet, Life, LTD, FSA / HSA / Dependent Care FSA, Flex Transit (CTA), 401(k), and employee discount.
