Assistant Store Manager (Store operations lead)
At Asket our vision is a world free of mindless consumption. To get there, we are on a mission to slow down the fashion industry by creating one permanent collection of garments that last longer, do better by people and planet and allow us to live fulfilled with less.
Rather than just another transactional store, the Asket store aims to create an in-depth experience with, and conversation around, our garments, leaving the customer to invest in them on their own terms: in store, from home, or not at all.
As Assistant Store Manager, you'll be the on-site operational lead of our London store on Brewer Street, making sure the routines behind the scenes run smoothly so the team can give every visitor an exceptional experience. You'll work side by side with our Store Manager to lead the team day to day, all while being a hands-on presence on the shop floor and a role model in customer service.

About Asket
Founded in 2015 in Stockholm by August Bard Bringéus and Jakob Sazon Dworsky, Asket’s vision is a world free from mindless consumption. Our promise is to create a single permanent collection, and refine it over time. We offer a strictly limited range of resourcefully and responsibly crafted, timeless essentials, manufactured exclusively in Europe from natural fibers.
We're proud of our product, the suppliers we work with and the materials we use. For every garment, we disclose not only the full supply chain, but also the environmental footprint and cost structure.
Our goal: To inspire a fulfilled life, through mindful relationships with material goods, people and planet. To enable us to focus on what truly matters, and let go of the rest.
