AutoShack is hiring a Retail Assistant Manager for our new AutoShack at Rona+ locations.

We are looking for someone who wants to prove themselves in a store-level leadership role, support day-to-day operations, and lead by example on the floor. The Assistant Manager is expected to maintain standards during assigned shifts and act as Manager-on-Duty when the Store Manager is off, on vacation, or otherwise unavailable.

This role is best suited for candidates seeking a stable, long-term career opportunity in retail leadership. Advancement opportunities exist within the company, but are based on demonstrated results, leadership maturity, and sustained success in the role over time.

• Support the Store Manager in day-to-day store operations
• Act as Manager-on-Duty during assigned shifts, manager time off, and vacation coverage
• Lead from the floor and maintain a visible leadership presence during shifts
• Coach and support associates on sales execution, customer service, and operational standards
• Drive performance across warranty attachment, AOV, customer experience, and return rate control
• Ensure company policies, operational procedures, and safety standards are followed
• Support inventory accuracy, stock organization, returns processing, and daily execution
• Resolve customer and staff issues professionally and promptly
• Maintain disciplined shift execution and consistent store standards

This position includes a base salary plus monthly commission.

Assistant Managers are expected to participate in the monthly commission plan based on both individual performance and store performance.

• Average Order Value
• Warranty Sales
• Return Rate

• Calls Answered / Abandoned
• Inventory Compliance
• Store Sales Target Performance

Based on results, Assistant Managers should reasonably expect commission earnings of approximately $150 per month on the low end, with strong performance capable of generating $550+ per month. Commission is governed by the Company’s Retail Assistant Manager compensation structure and performance expectations. The role itself includes Manager-on-Duty responsibilities and accountability for consistent store execution.

• Proven leadership experience in a retail environment
• Strong coaching, accountability, and communication skills
• Comfortable maintaining standards and addressing issues in real time
• Professional, reliable, and organized
• Able to operate independently during assigned shifts
• Comfortable in a structured environment with clear standards and expectations
• Looking for a long-term role, not a short-term stepping stone
