Full job description

Outdoor Division Manager (Operations & Inventory Control)

Swan Lake Market & Garden is seeking a hands-on Outdoor Division Manager to lead and strengthen our garden centre and exterior retail operations.

This is a working leadership role within a high-volume seasonal environment. The successful candidate will combine operational strength, commercial plant knowledge, and financial discipline to drive performance across our outdoor division.

This is not a desk-based management position — however, strong analytical and spreadsheet capability is required.

About the Role

The Outdoor Division Manager is directly accountable for the operational and financial performance of the outdoor division, including:

Garden centre and plant departments
Trees, shrubs, soils, and seasonal outdoor categories
Outdoor merchandising and yard presentation
Seasonal outdoor events and workshop coordination
Vendor relationships and purchasing discipline

You will operate with significant autonomy and are expected to run the outdoor division independently within approved financial parameters.

You will report directly to ownership and participate in structured weekly financial performance reviews.

Core ResponsibilitiesDivision Leadership & Operations

Oversee all daily outdoor operations
Conduct regular property walk-throughs to maintain standards
Lead department managers and seasonal staff
Recruit, hire, train, and hold staff accountable
Maintain strong merchandising standards

This role requires active physical participation in yard operations.

Plant Knowledge & Inventory Booking

Lead annual and seasonal inventory booking cycles
Forecast demand based on historical data
Manage vendor relationships
Monitor inventory turns and mitigate risk
Manage markdown and exit strategies
Ensure gross margin targets are achieved

The successful candidate must balance horticultural knowledge with commercial profitability.

Financial Accountability

Own and manage financial performance
Control labour within budgets
Maintain purchasing discipline
Identify efficiency opportunities

This role carries purchase order authority within approved budgets.

Data & Analysis Capability (Required)

This role requires independent use of Excel or similar tools to analyze purchasing, inventory, and financial data.

The successful candidate must be able to:

Build and manage spreadsheets to track purchase orders
Calculate totals, margins, and variances (e.g., quantity × cost)
Reconcile vendor orders against internal budgets
Sort, filter, and analyze POS data

This is a core requirement. Candidates without hands-on spreadsheet capability will not be a fit.

What We’re Looking For

Experience managing multi-department retail or garden centre operations
Strong plant knowledge and seasonal planning experience
Proven ability to manage inventory and financial performance
Strong leadership and accountability skills
Ability to operate independently

We are seeking a builder — someone who can strengthen structure and improve performance.

Pay: $65,000.00-$75,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Dental care
Extended health care
On-site parking
Store discount

Experience:

Business management: 5 years (required)
Retail Customer Service: 5 years (required)
Applied Plant Knowledge: 3 years (preferred)

Location:

Vernon, BC V1B 3W6 (preferred)

Work Location: In person
