Blenders Eyewear, LLC.•Austin, TX

About The Position

Born in sunny San Diego, Blenders Eyewear was forged from fun. It all started in a crowded California club in 2012, when founder Chase was inspired by a simple set of off-brand shades and a dope DJ set. What began as a night with close friends and good tunes turned into a full-blown passion for sunglasses and a belief that great style didn’t have to come with a big price tag. At Blenders, we design Sun, Snow, and Prescription eyewear with the understanding that compromise is overrated. Every creation is equal parts stylish, performance-driven, and price-friendly—no exceptions. We craft gear for those who lust for life’s adventure and believe it’s better to “Blend Out” than blend in. So if you’ve always felt the day sounds better when you press ‘Play’ on your passions; that hard work is the hook that makes life’s song work; and that great things really can be born from a good time, you should hit us with your credentials. Because like us, it sounds like you’re here to change the game, not just play it. The Future Is Bright at Blenders… are you ready to Live Forward together? We’re searching for a Retail Store Manager—let us know you have what it takes below! Reporting to the District Manager, the Store Manager is product-obsessed, and the ultimate brand ambassador for Blenders Eyewear. As a leader you drive the success of the store's business and customer experience by developing a team of talented leaders and Shade Specialists, all while embodying an entrepreneurial spirit that manages a highly productive store environment.
