Area Manager: H; Fine Jewelry

About HYOU

HYOU Fine Jewelry creates pieces that move with you - bold, personal, and unapologetically modern. We design jewelry that looks elevated, feels effortless, and celebrates individuality.

Our collections feature lab grown diamonds and high-quality gemstones, set in solid 10K gold and 14K gold vermeil layered over sterling silver. Every piece passes strict quality checks to ensure it’s made to last - jewelry meant for everyday wear, not special occasions only.

By working directly with our makers, using lab grown diamonds, and keeping our model lean, HYOU delivers the same sparkle without inflated markups. The result: meaningful, modern fine jewelry that’s accessible, intentional, and personal.

HYOU stores bring this philosophy to life - offering a confident, welcoming space where customers are guided through discovery, education, and self-expression.

Leap is seeking an entrepreneurial Brand Area Manager to lead a cluster of HYOU Fine Jewelry stores and bring the brand’s modern, confidence-driven approach to fine jewelry to life across the region. This role is designed for a hands‑on retail leader who understands that today’s fine jewelry experience is built on trust, education, and personal connection—not pressure. Overseeing two to four locations and directly managing one store, you’ll maintain a strong in‑store presence four days per week and 1 remote day, ensuring each location consistently delivers an elevated, effortless, and informed customer experience that reflects HYOU’s point of view.

Blending day‑to‑day leadership with strategic ownership, you’ll hire, develop and inspire teams to sell through styling, storytelling, and education while upholding high standards in service, visual presentation, and execution. You’ll leverage customer insights, product performance, and team feedback to understand what’s resonating and to drive growth across your market. In close partnership with Leap and brand stakeholders, you’ll contribute to business planning, support new store openings, and execute impactful in‑store moments, clienteling strategies, and gifting initiatives that foster loyalty and repeat engagement.

As a Brand Area Manager, you’ll serve as a clear, confident, and thoughtful ambassador for both HYOU and Leap, representing the brand with care and consistency in your market.
