Operations Manager
The Operations Managers at Value Pawn provide support to the Store Manager by completing many different tasks during the course of a normal business day. On any given day, the Operations Manager must wear many different "hats" to accomplish assigned tasks. Among these are being a loan officer, inventory control specialist, merchandiser, buyer, human resources manager and customer service team leader.
Value Pawn & Jewelry (Value) is part of one of the nation’s largest publicly-owned pawn chains. Value operates stores throughout the Southeastern United States and generated more than $110 million in revenue last year. The company loans money on anything of value, and sells jewelry, tools and electronics along with a wide range of other merchandise. Our attention to exceptional customer service, timely merchandising and a family-friendly atmosphere constitutes our formula for success. As a testament to our employee-centric atmosphere and customer service, Value has consistently been honored in The Orlando Business Journal’s “Best Places to Work" and in Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest growing companies.
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A OPERATIONS MANAGER
Managers at Value Pawn complete many different tasks during the course of a normal business day. On any given day, the Store Manager must wear many different "hats" to accomplish assigned tasks. Among these are being a loan officer, inventory control specialist, merchandiser, buyer, human resources manager and customer service team leader.
The Store Manager at Value is always in control of the store's business operations. Value's Managers decide how much to loan a customer on any item of value while considering how that Loan might affect the store earnings down the road. How much the Store Manager Loans on an item will determine how much can be collected in pawn service charges when the loan is redeemed or how much gross profit can be realized if the pawned item is not reclaimed by the customer and is later sold by the store.
Pricing and item discounts are controlled by the Store Manager. This along with the loan decision noted above gives the Value Store Manager the authority and responsibility to control how much money a particular store will earn in net profit each month.
Value's Managers are involved in every transaction of every business activity in their store; directing customer traffic and making loan and selling decisions. The success of every Value store is directly related to the ability of the Store Manager to manage the business in a professional and profitable manner.
If you have the leadership to build a strong Team, like working around people in a fast-paced environment, have an entrepreneurial spirit, and like to make money, you can be a very successful manager with Value.
