Assistant Store Manager - Hardware and Building Supply

Job Description

Job DescriptionWe’re an independent building supply and hardware store on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, and we’re growing. We need an assistant store manager who takes ownership of the floor, the staff, and the numbers — not someone who just keeps the lights on.

What you’ll own:

∙ Day-to-day floor operations and staff supervision
∙ Customer experience from walk-in to checkout
∙ Driving sales — upselling, product knowledge, building contractor and building super relationships
∙ Receiving, inventory integrity, and merchandising standards
∙ Opening and closing responsibilities

You’re the right fit if:

∙ You have 3+ years managing or supervising in a hardware, building supply, or trades-adjacent retail environment
∙ You understand the contractor and building superintendent customer — how they think, what they need, and how to earn their repeat business
∙ You’ve managed floor staff and aren’t afraid of a direct conversation
∙ You treat the store like it’s yours

Compensation: $75,000–$95,000 annually, based on experience

To apply: Tell us where you’ve managed in hardware or building supply, how many people you supervised, and one thing you did that measurably improved store performance.
