Paid Time Off

About Us Scenthound is on a mission to make routine dog care simple and accessible. We're not just grooming dogs. We're building a movement for healthier, happier pups and a connected community of dog lovers. Our focus is preventative care, consistent customer experience, and creating an environment where both dogs and people thrive.

About the Opportunity

This is not a traditional retail management role. You will lead one of the founding Scenters in Scenthound's South Sound Washington expansion — working directly with ownership to open, operate, and grow the University Place location as part of a planned multi-location build-out across the South Sound and Vancouver regions.

North Star

We remove barriers so that people can love and connect with their dogs every day.

Our Core Values Dog First. One Pack. Bring Love. Seek Growth. Make a Difference.

The Role

As Scenter Manager, you'll own your store's performance — from team development and customer satisfaction to revenue growth and membership sales. You'll lead from the front, setting the tone for service excellence while meeting (and exceeding) key business goals.

This role combines sales strategy, people leadership, and operational execution — perfect for someone who is confident in influencing others, measuring results, and turning great experiences into long-term members.

This position requires -

Management experience

Customer service experience (retail, restaurant)

Strength to lift up to 70 pounds; stamina to stand for long periods of time

Reliable transportation

Willingness to work in a smoke-free environment

Who We Are Looking For

A confident manager who leads with integrity, honesty, and compassion. A successful Scenter Manager is an independent problem solver, adaptable, detail-oriented, and compassionate dog lover! We are looking for a HANDS-ON leader who can manage the day-to-day operations of the Scenter with an emphasis on critical KPIs: Labor Efficiency Ratio (LER), Average Ticket Price, Rebook Ratio, Retention Rate and Lead Conversion.
