Retail Sales Supervisor, Southampton (NY)

Senior Retail Sales Supervisor — Southampton håndværk | 30 Main Street, Southampton, NY About håndværk håndværk makes high-end basics, and only that. Since 2013 we've stayed focused on one thing: essential, unembellished garments made from the world's finest natural materials, cut in classic silhouettes that don't chase seasons or trends. Our pieces are produced in small, family-run workshops — the same partners we've worked with for years — because craftsmanship at human scale is the whole point. Guided by \"less, but better,\" we make clothes meant to be worn for years, not one. We're an independent, founder-led brand with stores on Madison Avenue and in Southampton, and a growing wholesale and international presence. The Role We're looking for a Senior Retail Sales Supervisor to lead the floor at our Southampton store. This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll set the standard for how håndværk shows up with every customer, run the day-to-day of the store, and develop the team underneath you. You report to store leadership and work closely with the Southampton warehouse team, since Southampton is also håndværk's central hub for fulfillment, wholesale, and supply to both stores. This is a role for someone who has sold — and led sales teams — in a considered, product-first environment. You know the difference between pushing product and educating a customer on why a garment is worth its price.
