The Oakland Home Store is seeking a hands-on, design-minded Operational Retail Manager to oversee the flow and function of our retail environment.

- Ability to safely lift and move up to 50 lbs, including furniture and outdoor pieces.
- Comfort working in both indoor and outdoor retail settings.
- Weekend availability required.
- Previous retail operations or inventory management experience preferred; visual merchandising sensibility a plus.
Job responsibilities include:
- Oversee and organize furniture inventory, including receiving, tagging, movement, and rotation.
- Manage seasonal floor conversions, transforming storage and showroom spaces to align with evolving collections and visual storytelling.
- Direct outdoor space operations — including layout, furniture, pottery, and accessory displays - ensuring each space feels intentional and inviting.

The ideal candidate:
You understand that the flow of a space tells a story. You are as comfortable behind the scenes as you are on the floor, balancing function with beauty. You take pride in precision, lead with a sense of care, and help create an environment that feels both elevated and effortless — a space where inspiration truly feels worth taking home.
