Overview
Store Manager Jobs in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India at Licious
Title: Store Manager
Company: Licious
Location: Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
We are Licious, a Bengaluru-based meat and seafood company founded in 2015 by Abhay Hanjura and Vivek Gupta — our founders, foodies, and friends. We're India's most successful D2C food-tech brand, operating in 20+ cities and delighting over 32 lakh customers with our de-licious fresh meat and seafood!
This is a full-charge, business-owner role at the store level. Think you have what it takes to be the magic ingredient in the recipe that is Licious? Read on…
What makes the role meaty?
- Sales & Revenue Ownership: Own the store's daily, weekly and monthly sales number — not just its execution. Chase target recovery the same day, drive upselling of value-added products, and run local activation and customer reactivation.
- Operations & Inventory Excellence: Run opening and closing readiness end-to-end — from early-morning inventory receipt to store closing.
- People Leadership: Run manpower planning, rostering and floor leadership. Train, coach and mobilise your team.
- Customer Championship: Be the default problem-solver for customer, quality and floor issues. Resolve grievances directly and build lasting relationships with the local community.
- Compliance & Commercial Awareness: Maintain hygiene / food-safety discipline as a habit, not audit-prep. Stay audit-ready, keep daily and weekly reporting current, and read and act on basic cost, wastage and margin levers.
We hope that you have…
Must-have
- A minimum of 1–2 years managing a retail store, shift or team in a structured, process-driven, target-tracked environment — any category (QSR, retail, meat / fresh-food, or organised non-food retail).
- A demonstrated ownership instinct — you act without waiting to be told and treat problems as yours to solve.
- A proven track record of chasing and recovering sales targets, not just reporting the miss.
- Hands-on team leadership experience: rostering, attendance management, floor coaching and grievance resolution.
- Working knowledge of cost drivers and basic P&L levers — wastage, labour cost and margin.
- Comfort working in, or willingness to be trained on, a hygiene- and food-safety-driven environment.
- Strong communication skills and a floor-first, hands-on leadership style.
- A positive, coachable and proactive attitude with a drive for continuous improvement.
Good-to-have
- Meat / fresh-food retail experience.
- Local marketing or activation experience.
- Premium or service-led retail exposure.
- A graduate degree, MBA, or hotel management qualification.
- Exposure to structured reporting tools.
While we have tasted a lot of success, the feast is just getting started.
