Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionSalary: DOEWho are you?
If so, The Spice & Tea Exchange of Alexandria, VA is seeking to bring a full-time Store Manager onboard ASAP. Get ready for baptism by fire and all the excitement that comes with it This location has been the top performing location for the last five year across a culinary boutique retail Franchise that has grown to more than 68 stores in the past 10 years . A women owned business established in 2013, the Rehoboth store, along with sister stores in Annapolis, MD and Alexandria, VA, can be described as a "scrappy startup on steroids" built on the framework of a still maturing woman owned Franchise yet infused with the knowledge, experience, process & technology innovation of the local Company leadership. Despite some to-be-expected growing pains along with post-COVID recovery hiccups, these three locations are poised to take their next giant leap forward –up-leveling the customer experience, staff/skill development, operational efficiencies and profitability. As our volume is 2 to 3 times an "average" franchise location, we demonstrate and push innovative thought leadership, superior execution and continuous improvement not only for satisfaction of a job well done but to influence the brand. While we perform in the top 7 stores nationwide (Rehoboth being #1 several years running) we aim for our three to be THE TOP THREE and are positioning for a strong Q4 followed by a phenomenal 2021. Not unlike Amazon, we look for candidates who:

We look for team members who are committed to creating an AMAZING customer experience while creating and delivering the highest quality spices, blends and teas. We seek great listeners and communicators with an interest or passion for food to graciously assist our customers in narrowing a seemingly overwhelming array of choices into a manageable set of options specific to customer interests and tastes to ensure they don't leave empty handed While the Alexandria, Annapolis and Rehoboth locations are under the local leadership of a female entrepreneur, the Brand has over 68 franchised stores across the US, providing guests with more than 140 spices, 85 exclusive hand-crafted blends, over 40 exotic teas, naturally infused sugars and salts from around the world and gourmet gifts and accessories.
As a member of our team, you can expect several things from us:
