Store Design & Visual Merchandising Manager

Job Summary:
We are looking for a retail design manager to help shape the look, feel, and flow of Squishable stores nationwide. The Store Design & Visual Merchandising Manager owns the visual strategy, overseeing store layouts, seasonal presentations, and brand installations that bring the Squishable experience to life. This role combines strategy with execution, ensuring our stores are engaging, cohesive, and consistently aligned with brand standards. You’ll collaborate across teams, manage vendors, and lead a small team to maintain a great in-store experience across our growing fleet of stores.

This role requires 5–7 years of experience in store design and visual merchandising, including at least 1–2 years managing a team. Retail experience is required; toy or specialty retail experience is a plus. Candidates must be comfortable with up to 50% travel to Squishable stores nationwide.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Drive retail visual strategy: Originate and advance the retail store design concepts and in-store experiences for a fleet of 20 stores across the country, including new store layouts, seasonal presentations, specialty installations, and reacting to the changing needs of an evolving brand.

  • Lead brand-focused design execution: Create and maintain visual guidelines, store standards, and brand directives, ensuring consistency with brand identity and retail best practices.

  • Manage implementation across the fleet: Oversee the design of new store openings, remodels, seasonal refreshes, and ongoing execution, working closely with cross-functional partners, external vendors, and store teams. Provide guidance and training to ensure standards are consistently upheld.

  • Inspire innovation and trend adoption: Monitor retail, design, and cultural trends to proactively evolve Squishable’s in-store experience and keep the brand fresh, fun, and relevant.

  • Lead and develop a team: Manage and mentor a small team of direct reports, fostering creativity and accountability while building strong collaboration with store and HQ partners.

Requirements:

  • 5–7 years of experience in store design and visual merchandising, with at least 1–2 years of experience managing a team.

  • Proficiency in SketchUp (required) and strong working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign), Google Suite, and related design tools.

  • Strong project management, organizational, and communication skills; ability to balance creative vision with operational execution.

  • Up-to-date knowledge of retail design trends and best practices, with the ability to apply them to a playful, brand-focused retail environment.

  • Willingness to travel up to 50% across the U.S. to support store openings, installations, trainings, and visual rollouts.
