The role

As an Operations Manager, you lead the engine behind the store — stock flow, replenishment, online processing and back-of-house routines — ensuring the shopfloor has what it needs to deliver great customer experiences. You’ll run a high-volume operation with accuracy and speed, balancing priorities, deadlines and people leadership to keep the store moving.

• Are commercially aware and understand how stock flow drives sales and service

• Are adaptable — you problem-solve quickly and keep operations running smoothly

• Care about standards, accuracy and doing things the right way

• Are resilient and ambitious, ready to grow within Inditex

What you’ll do

• Oversee all back-of-house operations, ensuring product flow is efficient, accurate and safe

• Monitor and improve replenishment routines and KPIs to meet company expectations

• Maintain healthy stock levels in store, managing inbound and outbound movements in line with guidelines

• Deliver strong execution of deliveries, processing deadlines and hourly replenishment at pace

• Lead and optimise online organisation: managing daily deadlines and maximising online packages to support store productivity

• Use commercial and product data to support store performance, availability and productivity

• Ensure smooth, proactive communication between stockroom, departments and front of house

• Motivate, coach and develop your team to deliver high standards consistently

• Support a high level of customer service by ensuring the right product is in the right place at the right time
