Who We Are

Division Road is a luxury heritage menswear online and physical retail business that presents traditional and forward North American, Western European, and Japanese apparel and footwear manufacturers to stylish clients from around the globe, with a customer service standard that is equal to the quality of goods we carry. Division Road fashioned a physical environment and round-table organization for those passionate about design and retail to excel professionally and personally. We situated the headquarters in an idyllic location, building our business to synchronize with constant natural changes and to meet challenges with action derived from composure, consideration, and creativity in a thriving, hard-working office culture.

The Role

The Retail & Business Manager role is an opportunity for a conscientious individual with an entrepreneurial drive and a passion for well-made, rare products to be a significant contributor to a landmark niche retail business.

The Retail & Business Manager will execute duties across many areas to facilitate the successful operation of both the brick-and-mortar environment and the business's e-commerce mechanisms. This role will increase sales of Division Road’s carefully crafted merchandise mix and leverage the iconic flagship location by ensuring a high-quality and streamlined operation from front to back of house.
