Store Manager Vacancy – Princes Arcade
Sir Plus started making boxers using surplus fabrics (hence the name ;). Over time, the range has grown to include a collection of core products, for which we are well known. Where possible, we still use surplus fabrics. The brand has evolved considerably, but we have remained true to our roots - making special pieces, in small runs, using quality fabrics.
After several years on Portobello Market we opened our first standalone store on Portobello Road 2017, a year later we opened our Islington store and our Princes Arcade store.
This role would be best suited to someone with some retail, or events based experience, who has managed a team before and is looking for a diverse role with considerable responsibility.
