District Manager - Starbucks - Jeddah, KSA WP

From the beginning, Starbucks set out to be a different kind of company. One that not only celebrates coffee and the rich tradition, but that also brings a feeling of connection. Starbucks coffee houses have become a beacon for coffee lovers everywhere because they know they can count on genuine service, an inviting atmosphere and a superb cup of expertly roasted and richly brewed coffee every time. It's not unusual to see people coming to Starbucks to chat, meet up or even work.

Starbucks is a neighborhood gathering place, a part of the daily routine - and we couldn't be happier about it. Get to know us and you'll see: we are so much more than what we brew. Starbucks prides itself on its people, or 'partners' as we call them. We strive to develop each partner to achieve their career goals, whether this is to become a district manager, Coffee Master or work within one of our Head Office functions.

As a champion of the brand you will lead store teams to meet their targets, be responsible for all store and employee development including performance management, coaching and identifying development, and ensure high levels of customer service throughout. You will also actively contribute to the development of business initiatives including new stores and store closures.

Requirements

* 3 years' store or multi-site experience (preferred)
* New restaurant opening and training experience (desirable)
* The ability to lead a team of 100 or more individuals
* Excellent IT skills
* English skills essential, Arabic preferred.

The ideal candidate will be an effective communicator, with an entrepreneurial spirit, and respect and appreciation for a variety of cultures and nationalities. You will be assertively engaged in career development for yourself and staff and possess a good understanding of servant leadership.
