Former Store Manager Patagonia Sydney
-
Jan 2018 - Apr 2019
In this role I recreated a more responsive and customer-centric team, often following my gut in hiring raw talent that really paid off with a fantastic team now on the floor. I feel satisfied that I have left a strong legacy of high achieving sales team that represent the Patagonia brand very well. My team achieved our annual sales target 7 months ahead of schedule, and then reached our added 90% stretched budget target 5 weeks ahead of the company's end of financial year.

Camp & Hike specialist. I brought an interesting toolbox to this position: Training and experience as a professional outdoor adventure guide & subsequent in-depth product knowledge; exceptional customer service skills honed in fine dining hospitality background; and a passion for engaging clientele with the natural environment. Working in a "big ticket store" taught me far more than I expected. Camp & Hike specialist.
