Store Manager - Opening Men Store Antwerp

In January 2027, we will be opening our third store in Antwerp, this time dedicated entirely to our Men’s Collection, at 41 Kammenstraat.

We are looking for our future Store Manager to lead this exciting new opening. As the driving force behind this project, you will take ownership of the store, inspire and motivate your team, and bring the American Vintage experience to life through our Men’s Collection.

Launched in 2008, the menswear collection has become a key growth segment for the brand. Season after season, American Vintage continues to expand its menswear offering, developing a complete wardrobe of timeless yet on-trend pieces.

Your responsibilities:

• You set the pace and inspire your team to engage with every customer.
• Your strong understanding of the shop floor enables you to adapt your approach, anticipate customer expectations and deliver a genuine, attentive experience that reflects the American Vintage universe.
• You monitor performance, identify areas for improvement and involve your team in finding solutions. Every target becomes a collective goal, supported by relevant and measurable actions.

• You act as a true ambassador for the brand with both your team and your customers. Through your presence and attention to detail, you ensure that its style, energy and values are reflected throughout the store.
• You ensure the collections are presented in a consistent and attractive way, while adapting merchandising guidelines to the specific needs and commercial priorities of your store.
• You also maintain an overall view of the store’s organisation: product availability, stock management, task allocation, priority management and effective use of resources.

• You take the time to understand each team member, identifying their strengths, development needs and individual drivers.
• You coach and support your team on a daily basis, share your expertise and provide constructive feedback to help each person develop greater autonomy and confidence.
• You create an environment that combines high standards with support, where achievements are recognised and challenges are addressed openly and transparently. Your ability to bring people together helps build a complementary, accountable and sustainably engaged team.

• Above all, you are commercially driven, with a strong passion for the shop floor and performance.
• You have proven experience in managing and driving the performance of a retail store.
• Your strong interest in fashion and products enables you to showcase the collections in a relevant and inspiring way.
• Adaptable, flexible and naturally curious, you bring an authentic, dynamic and creative approach to your role.
• Fluency in Flemish and English is essential for this position.
• French proficiency is a plus.
