INTERNAL OPPORTUNITIES WITHIN JOE

This is your next move. You're already part of JOE. You know the culture, the pace, and what it takes.

Now here's a chance to grow into something new. We always look inside first. If you've got the attitude, the hunger, and the drive — this could be yours.

Read the role below, and if it feels right, go for it.

Your Mission

Ireland is a new, emerging market for JOE & THE JUICE: two stores are open, a third is on the way, and a healthy pipeline is lined up for next year. Based in Ireland, the role is part of UK&I Operations, working closely with Real Estate, Construction, People and HQ. Reporting to the Operations Director UK&I, this role leads JOE in Ireland end to end. It combines strategic market building with hands-on leadership on the floor, ensuring every store starts strong and the JOE culture is cared for from day one. As the market grows, you will build a team of experts around you and plan talent and succession early - a natural next step for an established District/Area Manager, and a chance to shape a market from the ground up.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and evolve the Ireland growth plan, turning an ambitious roadmap into clear priorities for stores, people and openings
• Build and scale a strong store management team, recruiting, training and coaching Store Managers while staying close to the team as we grow
• Lead each new store opening from preparation to launch and the first months of trading, partnering with Real Estate and Construction on site input, build progress and handover
• Lead hands-on operations, being on the floor regularly to coach in the moment, spot issues early and fix workflows that slow the team down
• Oversee and improve product quality, service, hygiene and guest experience, balancing global JOE standards with local Irish needs
• Ensure compliance with Irish health and safety, food safety and employment regulations in every store
• Own the Ireland P&L and budget (sales, margin, labour, waste and overheads), using trading data to find opportunities across all sales channels
• Champion the JOE virtues (Positive Attitude, Inclusion, Social Ties, Growth), driving engagement, retention and talent planning as the market scales

What You'll Bring

• Proven multi-site leadership in F&B, QSR, hospitality or retail, ideally as a District or Area Manager or similar
• Hands-on experience opening and ramping new stores or markets, and working with Real Estate and Construction teams
• A people-first approach: you coach, build talent and care about culture, whether you are a JOE insider or joining us from outside
• Knowledge of the Irish market (landlords, employment law, hiring landscape and local guest expectations) is a plus
• Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence across functions and seniority levels.
• Commercially sharp, with a strong grasp of P&L, labour and margin, and calm, decisive and positive in a fast-moving environment
• Fluent in English - other languages are a bonus!

Our Benefits

We offer a benefits package that includes a paid pension plan, health insurance, parental leave, and additional vacation. Besides that, we provide some JOE-ified benefits:

• At JOE, we embrace a flat hierarchy that values every opinion, creating a welcoming space for your ideas and suggestions to thrive.
