Retail Operations Assistant
About The Position
The Golf Club at Lansdowne is seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented, and creative Retail Operations Assistant to work directly with the Director of Retail.

After training, we are looking for someone who can recognize what needs to be done, prioritize responsibilities, and take ownership without requiring daily direction. This position is ideal for someone who enjoys the creative and operational sides of retail. You'll gain hands-on experience with visual merchandising, inventory management, buying, open-to-buy, vendor relationships, and corporate and event merchandise. We're looking for someone who asks questions while learning, takes initiative once trained, and takes pride in keeping the Retail operation organized and moving forward.
