Department Sales Manager

A Sales Manager opportunity that is RIGHT for YOU!DIFFERENT... At Bon-Ton, we understand that everyone is different. We each have different interests, different skills, different dreams, different ideas. Bon Ton provides a culture in which differences are maximized and turned into creativity and an entrepreneurial spirit which drives success. BUT JUST RIGHT... As one of the few regional department stores, we are large enough to provide you with the training, resources and upward mobility you need to thrive, but we are small enough to be flexible and responsive to your ideas and the needs of our customers. In the retail world of consolidation and standardization we are looking for sales managers who use their creativity and entrepreneurial drive to manage a business, not just execute orders. Come to the right place for a career opportunity to be one of our sales managers. You will select, train, lead, and develop your team, manage the merchandising effort for your area to maximize sales and profit, identify sales trends and make recommendations to address those trends, and shop the competition and report your findings.QualificationsYou should have previous experience managing in a retail environment and a passion for success.BenefitsWe offer a full benefits package to full-time Associates.The Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. operates 275 department stores and seven furniture galleries in 23 states in the Northeast, Midwest and upper Great Plains under the Bon-Ton, Bergner's, Boston Store, Carson Pirie Scott, Elder-Beerman, Herberger's and Younkers nameplates and, under the Parisian nameplate, two stores in the Detroit, Michigan area, with construction under way to open a third Parisian store in October 2007 in the Detroit market.
