Store Manager - Hamburg

at  JIMMY FAIRLY

Langweilig? Teuer? Langweilig? Jimmy Fairly wurde nicht aus dem Wunsch, sondern aus dem Bedürfnis heraus geboren, die Optikbranche zu revolutionieren. Gegründet wurde es 2010 von Antonin Chartier, einem 23-jährigen Psychologiestudenten mit einer Leidenschaft für Unternehmertum. Chartiers Konzept war einfach: Qualitätsbrillen, faire Preise und eine positive soziale Wirkung.
Über ein Jahrzehnt später hat sich wenig geändert. Mit mehr als 100 Geschäften in ganz Europa und Großbritannien bringt Jimmy Fairly erfolgreich großartigen Stil und ein Lächeln in die Welt der Optik zurück. Großartiger Stil, indem alle 6 Wochen trendige Designs auf den Markt gebracht werden, mit einem kurzgeschlossenen Herstellungsprozess, der keine Kompromisse bei der Qualität oder unserem Planeten eingeht. Ein Lächeln mit einem kundenorientierten Ansatz, von dem Moment an, in dem ein Kunde ein Jimmy-Geschäft betritt, bis zu dem Moment, in dem er seine Augen von unseren fachkundigen Optometristen testen lässt und Hilfe von unserem außergewöhnlichen Nachbetreuungsteam erhält.

WAS IST IM ANGEBOT?

• Ein wettbewerbsfähiges Gehalt, je nach Erfahrung
• Sehr wettbewerbsfähiges Bonusprogramm
• Willkommensbrille von Jimmy in der ersten Woche
• Großer Mitarbeiterrabatt
• Teilweise bezahlte Reisekosten
  Wir sind ein Arbeitgeber der Chancengleichheit und begrüßen Bewerbungen von allen qualifizierten Personen, unabhängig von Rasse, Geschlecht, Behinderung, Religion/Weltanschauung, sexueller Orientierung oder Alter.

Boring? Expensive? Dull? Jimmy Fairly was born, not with a want but a need to revolutionise the optical industry. Founded in 2010 by Antonin Chartier, a 23-year old psychology student with a passion for entrepreneurship. Chartier’s concept was simple: quality glasses, fair prices and a positive social impact.
Over a decade later, little has changed. Now with over 100 stores across Europe and UK, Jimmy Fairly is successfully bringing back great style and a smile to the optical world. Great style by dropping on-trend designs every 6 weeks, with a short-circuit manufacturing process that does not compromise on quality or our planet. A smile with a customer-centric approach, from the moment a customer enters a Jimmy store, to having their eyes tested by our expert optometrists and seeking help from our exceptional after-care team.
