About the Brand

Hey! We’re SET. We’re here to simplify the way you get dressed. In an effort to be more effortless, we design athleisure that blurs the line between form and function. Whether you're getting active or actively chilling on the couch, our elevated essentials take you there. We’re a community first and a brand second. Seriously. Everything we create is with you in mind— from styles and colors, to what's to come and what's coming back. We believe open communication is key, because we’re at our best when you feel yours. We love to share what's going on BTS (behind the SET). Production planning, photoshoots, business day-to-day, what's up next, the good, the bad and the challenging. We're big on keeping it real and we'll always share the "why," because you deserve it.

About the Role:

We are seeking a motivated and service-driven Assistant Store Manager for our boutique powered by the Leap Platform, located in Los Angeles. This role is ideal for an emerging retail leader ready to take on increased business ownership and people leadership responsibility within a fast-paced, client-focused environment.

In partnership with the Store Manager, you will help lead the daily business, drive sales performance, and deliver an elevated and service-first in-store experience.
