We're looking for an Expansion & Store Development Manager to lead the growth of HOFF's store network. Reporting directly to senior management, this role combines real estate and project management: finding and securing the best locations, in Spain and abroad, and turning them into stores that bring the HOFF experience to life.

Your mission will be to grow HOFF's retail footprint in a profitable, scalable way. You'll define where and how we open, negotiate the right deals, lead each project from lease signing to opening on time and on budget, and track the network's performance so every store delivers on its business case.

• Define and execute HOFF's expansion plan with senior management, setting priorities by market, city and location based on commercial potential, profitability and brand positioning.
• Help shape HOFF's store mix, formats and geographic footprint, including entry into new national and international markets.
• Identify and assess new cities, areas and sites, both high-street and shopping centres, through market research, site visits and feasibility studies.
• Build the business case for each opportunity: sales forecast, rent, capex and expected return.
• Negotiate lease terms with landlords, shopping centres and agents, and support the contract process with Legal.
• Build a strong network in commercial real estate and keep track of market and competitor trends.
• Lead each store project from lease signing to opening, including refurbishments, relocations, pop-ups and shop-in-shops.
• Manage the external architecture studio, contractors and suppliers, ensuring every project reflects our brand identity and business needs.
• Control timelines, budget and quality, anticipating deviations and proposing solutions.
• Manage licences, permits and regulatory compliance.
• Coordinate Retail, Operations, Marketing, Finance and Product teams so every store is operationally and commercially ready to open.
• Own the annual expansion budget, with forecasts and regular reporting to management.
• Manage and optimise capex for openings and refurbishments, setting investment standards by store format and finding cost savings in construction, materials, fixtures and suppliers.
• Build scalable opening processes and track key expansion KPIs: number of openings, investment per store, on-time delivery, occupancy cost and profitability.
• Track new store performance against the original business case.
• Analyse the profitability of the store network and identify opportunities to renegotiate, relocate or close stores.
• Report regularly on the expansion plan and network performance, flagging deviations and proposing corrective actions.

• 🕑 We're an international brand on the road to success, with that start-up vibe where anything is possible.
