Empowering women. Transforming the world.
Before it was called activewear, Lorna Jane imagined it, designed it, and defined it — creating a movement that redefined how women move, dress, and live.
Today, we lead with purpose. Elevated activewear, crafted to support movement, confidence, and modern life. Guided by conscious design and an active spirit, we believe in the power of women to create change that goes far beyond what they wear. At Lorna Jane, you don't just join a brand. You help lead what's next.
The opportunity
Some stores are stepping stones. South Wharf is a statement.
Sitting on the Yarra in one of Australia's highest-traffic outlet destinations, our South Wharf DFO store moves at a pace that rewards real leadership. The customers are constant. The opportunity is enormous. And the store is ready for a leader who wants to make it theirs.
As Store Manager, you'll take full ownership — the team, the numbers, the experience, the result. You'll lead from the front, build a team that customers remember, and turn high traffic into high performance. This is the role for a retail leader who doesn't want to maintain a store. You want to build one.
What you'll do
- Own your store's performance — you know your numbers, and you move them.
- Lead your team to achieve sales targets and KPIs through customer-first service.
- Recruit, coach, and develop a high-performing team that grows with you.
- Drive operational excellence across stock management and visual merchandising in a high-volume environment.
- Build smart, commercial rosters aligned to trade and wage targets.
- Champion the Lorna Jane brand and Active Living philosophy with every customer who walks through your door.

About you
You're a confident retail leader who:
- Leads with genuine care — you connect with people, read the room, and inspire the team and the customer in front of you.
- Takes pride in the result and owns it. You're hands-on, accountable, and always looking to grow.
- Delivers standout customer experiences, even at full pace.
- Thrives in a fast-paced, target-driven environment — solutions-focused, and the kind of leader who makes opportunities happen rather than waiting for them.
- Is commercially savvy. You read the numbers and act on them with confidence.
- Brings retail leadership experience, ideally in a high-volume or outlet environment (fashion or activewear desirable, not essential).
