They are responsible for overseeing all activities within the store, which could involve staff recruitment and training, inventory management, merchandising, financial management, and dealing with customer issues or complaints. As the store representative, a Store Manager is often the point of contact for the business, ensuring that the store is operating effectively and efficiently while meeting its sales targets and objectives. They also provide leadership and direction to the staff, fostering a positive and productive work environment.
