What are the responsibilities and job description for the Store Manager position at Bricks & Minifigs Westchester?
ABOUT US
Bricks & Minifigs Westchester is a locally owned specialty store and event space in Bedford Hills, NY dedicated to all things LEGO®. We buy, sell, and trade new, retired, and bulk LEGO sets, minifigures, accessories, and built sets. We also host birthday parties, workshops, and free play days — making us a true destination for the Westchester community.
THE ROLE
We’re hiring a General Store Manager who’s ready to lead from day one. This is a true partnership with the owner: you run the store, drive the team, and own day-to-day operations — while the owner focuses on growing the business. We want someone who takes initiative, moves independently, and keeps ownership in the loop. Big decisions come to the owner; everything else is yours to lead.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
• Run the store: open/close, manage daily operations, make real-time decisions independently
• Lead & delegate: schedule, coach, and set your team up to succeed every shift
• Payroll & HR: process payroll, hire and onboard staff, handle performance management
• Inventory: receiving, pricing, cycle counts, trade-ins, and loss prevention
• Reporting: pull and share weekly/monthly sales, labor, and inventory reports with the owner
• Host events & parties: run birthday parties and in-store events; train staff to support seamlessly
• Partner with ownership: proactively communicate, flag issues early, bring solutions — no surprises
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
• 3 years retail management experience, including sole-charge store leadership
• Payroll, hiring, and HR experience — you’ve done this, not just assisted
• Proven inventory management: receiving, counts, trade evaluations, loss prevention
• Experience hosting events, parties, or group activities
• A natural delegator who builds teams that run smoothly without hand-holding
• Self-starter who takes initiative — and knows when to loop in the owner
• Comfortable and thriving in a clear ownership structure
• Flexible schedule including evenings, weekends, and holidays
BONUS POINTS
• Familiarity with LEGO® products or the collector/hobby retail space
• Franchise retail experience
• Social media content creation
WHAT WE OFFER
• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
• Real autonomy and ownership over a beloved local store
• A fun, community-driven environment where you’re a key part of the team
• Collaborative relationship with an engaged, accessible owner
