Picture yourself being part of the launch team for our brand new Whitianga Warehouse Stationery store as the Assistant Store Manager where a relaxed coastal lifestyle meets a thriving town with a strong community vibe, stunning scenery, and easy access to beaches, boating, fishing and watersports all year round. In this standout leadership opportunity, you’ll play a key role in helping deliver a best in class store operation, building a team first and customer first culture, and contributing to a store that is productive and profitable through great retail execution and continuous improvement.
You’ll lead from the front coaching, supporting and lifting team performance as part of the store’s leadership group, and helping keep daily routines strong (including running effective daily huddles and delegating priorities so the team is set up to win each day). Importantly, you’ll support the Store Manager in day to day store operations including key planning rhythms like sales and labour planning and you’ll have the capability and confidence to step in as support when needed. Just as importantly, you’ll be a proud local ambassador, strengthening connections and partnerships with local businesses, schools and community stakeholders through store driven community activity.

Why Join Us?
The Warehouse Group (TWG) is a New Zealand success story, founded by Sir Stephen Tindall and evolved from a single The Warehouse store to become one of the largest retailing groups in New Zealand with $3 billion in sales. TWG consists of three core retail brands: The Warehouse, Warehouse Stationery, and Noel Leeming. We have over 180 retail stores, online stores as well as distribution centres throughout New Zealand. We also have two overseas sourcing offices located in China and India. We are a people-centred business with more than 10,000 team employees across our locations.
TWG is known for being Here for Good - it’s who we are and what keeps us focused to succeed. It represents our commitment to better living for all New Zealanders, through sustainable retail products and practices and the mission of contributing to the long-lasting health of our planet.
Over the years, we’ve raised over 50 million dollars for New Zealand communities and have contributed to countless community-focussed initiatives. We were the first company in New Zealand to add a Shielded Site link to the Women's Refuge website to help protect those experiencing family violence, and were a key supporter of the Government’s Family Violence Victims’ Protection Bill. We were New Zealand’s first large company and the third major retailer in the world to go carbon neutral.
While we are 40+ years old as a business, in many ways we feel we’re just getting started.
