Golf - Retail Supervisor

About This Role

GENERAL SUMMARY:

The Retail Supervisor is responsible for the daily operational oversight of the Qiddiya Golf retail outlet.

Acting as the primary support to the Retail Manager, the Supervisor leads the front-line retail team by example, ensuring that every guest interaction reflects the 5-star luxury positioning of the facility. The incumbent acts as the "Floor Manager," ensuring merchandise is replenished, staff are deployed effectively, and sales targets are actively pursued.

The scope involves direct supervision of Retail Assistants, management of shift rotations, and the practical application of visual merchandising guidelines. The Retail Supervisor is accountable for accurate cash handling, stock security, and resolving first-tier guest complaints. Additionally, this role plays a pivotal part in tournament operations, assisting with golfer check-ins and the distribution of tee gifts during high-profile events.
