Director of Property

Developing and implementing a property strategy that optimises our store portfolio in the UK and internationally will be pivotal, while responding to changing market conditions.

Overseeing the property budget, you'll ensure the estate portfolio is cost-effective and aligns with the business, monitoring financial performance and identifying opportunities to optimise operating costs and maximise profitability.

In collaboration with your team, you'll ensure store roll outs are delivered on time, cost-effectively, and in line with our brand vision and operational requirements. Identifying target locations for new stores, you'll create a pipeline of properties to meet the growth aspirations of the business.

You'll work with external consultants on property acquisition for approved sites, negotiate with landlords, propose Heads of Terms, and coordinate legal processes to completion. Additionally, you'll ensure compliance with lease agreements and secure commercially advantageous terms.

You'll be accountable for the procurement, management, and delivery of all property and facilities projects, covering the office and warehouse estate, store design and fit-outs in the UK and internationally. You'll ensure the estate is well-maintained through proactive and reactive maintenance while providing a safe, clean, and inspiring environment for our people and customers, that meets our sustainability commitments, health and safety, and building regulations.

A member of our senior leadership team, you'll lead direct reports and drive clear accountabilities, maximising performance in a way that is consistent with our culture and values. Communicating effectively, you'll ensure information cascades quickly and accurately, while building and maintaining strong collaborative working relationships with external and internal stakeholders at all levels.
