Foster strong, collaborative partnerships with Marketing, Buying, Product, Planning and Store Experience teams.

Commercial Performance

Deliver sales, margin and EBIT targets across the global retail portfolio.

Own labour productivity, forecasting, in season trading and markdown optimisation.

Leverage data, trends, and insights to drive decisive and profitable action.

Inventory & Operational Control

Drive high stock turns, low shrinkage, and disciplined inventory management.

Ensure consistent global compliance standards, policies and procedures.

Oversee omni channel operations including click & collect and ship from store.

What You Bring

Senior retail leadership experience across ANZ and global markets.

Demonstrated success in multi country retail operations; surf or sports retail experience advantageous.

Commercial acumen, operational depth, and strategic capability.

A leadership style that inspires, motivates, and builds strong teams.

Exceptional communication, collaboration, and stakeholder management.

Why Rip Curl?
