Store Manager

Job Description

Job Description ABOUT US Bricks & Minifigs Westchester is a locally owned specialty store and event space in Bedford Hills, NY dedicated to all things LEGO®. We buy, sell, and trade new, retired, and bulk LEGO sets, minifigures, accessories, and built sets. We also host birthday parties, workshops, and free play days — making us a true destination for the Westchester community.

THE ROLE We’re hiring a General Store Manager who’s ready to lead from day one. This is a true partnership with the owner: you run the store, drive the team, and own day-to-day operations — while the owner focuses on growing the business. We want someone who takes initiative, moves independently, and keeps ownership in the loop. Big decisions come to the owner; everything else is yours to lead.

WHAT YOU’LL DO • Run the store: open/close, manage daily operations, make real-time decisions independently • Lead & delegate: schedule, coach, and set your team up to succeed every shift • Payroll & HR: process payroll, hire and onboard staff, handle performance management • Inventory: receiving, pricing, cycle counts, trade-ins, and loss prevention • Reporting: pull and share weekly/monthly sales, labor, and inventory reports with the owner • Host events & parties: run birthday parties and in-store events; train staff to support seamlessly • Partner with ownership: proactively communicate, flag issues early, bring solutions — no surprises
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR • 3+ years retail management experience, including sole-charge store leadership • Payroll, hiring, and HR experience — you’ve done this, not just assisted • Proven inventory management: receiving, counts, trade evaluations, loss prevention • Experience hosting events, parties, or group activities • A natural delegator who builds teams that run smoothly without hand-holding • Self-starter who takes initiative — and knows when to loop in the owner • Comfortable and thriving in a clear ownership structure • Flexible schedule including evenings, weekends, and holidays
BONUS POINTS • Familiarity with LEGO® products or the collector/hobby retail space • Franchise retail experience • Social media content creation

WHAT WE OFFER • Competitive salary commensurate with experience • Real autonomy and ownership over a beloved local store • A fun, community-driven environment where you’re a key part of the team • Collaborative relationship with an engaged, accessible owner
