Group Sales Manager

Group Manager

The Group Manager leads and directs the sales organization across the five-store Phoenix area market — Avondale, Gilbert, Casa Grande, Glendale, and Phoenix — to achieve sales, margin, and profitability goals for the market. This role accomplishes market sales objectives by hiring, orienting, training, assigning, scheduling, coaching, and, when necessary, disciplining General Managers and store sales teams; by communicating job expectations; and by planning, monitoring, appraising, and reviewing performance against company standards and policies. The Group Manager reports directly to the Senior Vice President of Sales and serves as the primary point of accountability for market-level performance.

The Group Manager reviews period-to-date and month-to-date performance across the market, including written vs. finalized/delivered sales, category mix (including mattress and clearance), and store-by-store ranking, and communicates clear, data-driven direction and motivation to General Managers and store teams. The Group Manager designs and recommends sales programs and sets short- and long-term sales strategies for the market in partnership with the Senior Vice President of Sales. The Group Manager evaluates and implements new sales techniques and best practices across all five stores to increase market sales volume and closing rate.

The Group Manager ensures full compliance with company policies and procedures across all five stores, and partners with Human Resources on staffing, performance management, and employee relations matters. The Group Manager builds bench strength within the market by identifying, developing, and mentoring future General Managers and sales leaders. The Group Manager represents the Phoenix market in regional and company-wide meetings, presenting performance results, initiatives, and action plans to executive leadership. The Group Manager owns the customer experience across the market by ensuring delivery of an exceptional customer experience at all five locations, monitoring customer satisfaction metrics, resolving escalated customer concerns, and driving continuous improvement in service standards across all store locations.

The Group Manager partners regularly with the market's Operations counterpart, dedicating meaningful time to align on store logistics, delivery performance, inventory flow, and facilities needs in support of the market's sales and customer experience goals.
