Store Director

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.
Bon Appétit!
