General Manager - Retail
About The Position
At The Wellsville Group, we believe great stores are built by great leaders. As a General Manager, you are the heartbeat—setting the tone, driving performance, and creating an environment where both guests and team members thrive. This role is ideal for a leader who loves being on the sales floor, developing people, and building a high-performance culture rooted in accountability, trust, and fun. You’ll oversee the showroom, leading a team of Home Furnishing Consultants and store leadership to deliver strong sales results and a true 5-star customer experience. As the General Manager, you are the captain of the ship. Your leadership directly impacts sales performance, team engagement, and the overall success of the showroom. You play a critical role in driving top-line performance and operational excellence, developing future leaders and building a strong succession bench, reinforcing company values, strategies, and standards, and creating a workplace where people feel supported, challenged, and proud to belong. Your presence on the sales floor, commitment to coaching, and ability to read and react to business trends are what separate good stores from great ones.
