Retail and Wholesale Manager - Honest Wolf | Hunterville

US$0.00
  • Mon-Fri hours with an awesome salary package

  • Sales, storytelling, and wholesale all in one role

  • Flexible hours and a family-first team culture

Honest Wolf is something genuinely special. A New Zealand wool brand with a store sitting right next door to where the wool itself is grown and made,  the story tells itself, and that is exactly what makes this role so exciting. The brand is growing year on year across retail, corporate gifting, and wholesale, attracting domestic travellers, international visitors, and a loyal customer base who connect deeply with what Honest Wolf stands for. This is a brand with real soul and a team that genuinely loves what they do.

They are looking for a Retail and Wholesale Manager to be the hero of the store and the face of the brand in person. This is not just a retail management role,  it is part sales, part storytelling, part relationship building, and part operations. You will manage the in-store team, drive retail and corporate sales targets, and look after a growing portfolio of wholesale accounts including some of New Zealand's most respected retailers. You will be based in Hunterville with occasional travel once or twice a month to visit wholesale partners and corporate clients, with the store always covered when you’re away.

This is a role for someone who can walk into a room, own it, and make people feel genuinely connected to what they are buying.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Running the day-to-day retail operation and creating an exceptional in-store experience for every customer who walks through the door

  • Driving sales across retail, corporate gifting, and wholesale channels with clear targets across each

  • Managing and developing a small in-store team including part-time and weekend staff

  • Building and maintaining wholesale relationships 

  • Pulling together wholesale booklets and managing accounts - you will bring the process

  • Getting Hubspot up and running and using it to manage and grow wholesale and corporate relationships

  • Travelling to meet wholesale and corporate clients as needed

What You Will Bring

  • Experience in retail management, wholesale, or a role that spans both

  • A genuine love of storytelling and selling with purpose, you do not just sell a product, you sell what it means

  • The ability to bring structure and systems to a business that is ready for them

  • Strong relationship-building skills and confidence managing corporate and wholesale accounts

  • Experience with Hubspot is valued

  • Someone who can manage themselves, back their own ideas, and get things done without needing to be told twice

Why This Role

  • Great base salary plus bonus structure

  • Flexible working hours - whether you are a 9 to 4 or a 7 to 3 person, or need something that works around young kids, they will make it work

  • All tools of the trade covered

  • Fun travel opportunities around New Zealand

  • A genuinely warm, family-first team culture where everyone mucks in and looks out for each other

  • The chance to be part of a brand that is growing fast and doing something really meaningful

  • Growth opportunity for the right person in this role

If you are someone who gets genuinely excited about what they sell, loves building relationships, and knows how to bring a brand story to life in a room,  this one is for you. Send your CV to Bindy Williams-Lough at bindy@frameconsulting.co.nz and tell us a little about why Honest Wolf feels like your kind of brand.
