Store Manager

Store Manager

We’re looking for leaders at Starbucks. Join us for coffee, stay for the community, connections and opportunities.

We’ve got an exciting opportunity for you to join us as a Store Manager. Find your place as a leader at Starbucks and help us build the brand’s future. Here your voice is brewed into everything we do. As a leader at Starbucks you will be empowered to treat the store as if it is your own business.

To be successful in the role, you’ll have previous experience in leading a team in a dynamic retail or hospitality environment. You’ll champion our mission and values to create our Starbucks experience for our customers and partners. You’ll understand your market, getting to know the competition and can identify opportunities to drive store profitability and your business forward. You’ll be an ambassador for our partner networks, making sure our partners know, here they belong.

About

The best part about this role is that no two days are ever the same! As a store leader, working in one of our dynamic stores, you’ll be setting the example and leading from the front on shift. A typical day could include:

  • Executing the store operations through your team, on your scheduled shifts and on your days off making sure opening, close and weekends are covered by yourself and your team of partners
  • Analysing data and leveraging observations in store to inform decision making that improves both the customer and overall store performance
  • Working with your store leaders to use forecasting and scheduling tools to manage labour within the required budgets as well as recruitment of world class and diverse talent that meets the store needs
  • Cascading and rolling out of new initiatives to enable operational excellence and drive business results
  • Supporting the growth of your partners through performance and development, coaching and developing your team and building positive relationships to understand partner challenges, needs and aspirations
  • Setting challenging and realistic goals to drive engagement and improve partner performance

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
