    • Operational leadership skills — you've taken responsibility for store operations in the absence of more senior managers.
    • Demonstrated success in meeting or exceeding KPIs — whether it's sales, availability, customer satisfaction or colleague engagement, you've made a measurable impact.
    • Has managed employee relations issues, including performance and absence management.
