Guest Experience & Operations Leader; Kilwins Chocolates, Ice Cream & Confections

Imagine leading one of the most joyful retail environments in the market, a store filled with handcrafted chocolates, premium ice cream, caramel apples, gift giving, celebrations, and returning guests who walk in expecting a memorable experience.

Kilwins (CMVentures, Inc) is seeking an energetic, highly organized, creatively minded leader to keep that experience running beautifully every day.

This is not a back-office management role. This is a hands-on leadership opportunity for someone who loves people, thrives in fast-paced environments, notices every detail, and takes pride in building a business that feels polished, warm, exciting, and consistently well run.

You will lead team culture, guest experience, daily store execution, visual presentation, local store excitement, and operational flow while helping shape the atmosphere that keeps customers coming back.

If you love leading from the front, motivating others, and making things happen with excellence, we would love to meet you.

As Guest Experience & Operations Leader, you will be the daily momentum behind the store by leading:

• Outstanding guest interactions and elevated customer service
• Team coaching, motivation, accountability, and positive culture
• Smooth daily opening, closing, staffing, and operational flow
• Beautiful merchandising, cleanliness, and polished presentation
• Seasonal promotions, in-store events, and community partnerships
• Product quality standards across chocolates, ice cream, fudge, caramel apples, and gifts
• Inventory organization, ordering awareness, and production readiness
• Sales growth through suggestive selling, team engagement, and guest connection
• Hiring participation, onboarding, and developing reliable team members

You do not need to come from a traditional “General Manager” background to succeed here, but you do need strong leadership instincts, exceptional organization, and the drive to own results.

• Kilwins is not simply a store people stop into; it is a destination. Guests come here to celebrate birthdays, buy gifts, bring family, grab dessert, reward themselves, and create small, memorable moments. That means this leadership role is about far more than scheduling employees or counting inventory.

This role is about:

• creating energy,
• setting standards,
• building team pride,
• maintaining visual excellence and keeping the guest experience exceptional from open to close.

You will have a visible impact every single day.

• Competitive salary based on experience
• Performance bonus opportunities
• Leadership growth path
• Employee discounts
• Creative input in promotions and local events
• A high-visibility role inside a premium, community-loved brand
