Good call—that’s exactly the kind of responsibility that separates a true operator from someone just babysitting a store. If they can’t plan and execute events, they’re not the right hire for Pigeon Forge.


Here’s your updated version with that built in cleanly:


General Manager – Cades Cove Outpost (Pigeon Forge Location)


Location: Teaster Lane, Pigeon Forge, TN

We are seeking a highly driven, hands-on General Manager to lead and operate our new Cades Cove Outpost retail location in Pigeon Forge. This role is responsible for the full performance of the store, including sales, staffing, inventory, merchandising, events, and overall customer experience.

  • Hire, train, schedule, and develop store employees

  • Set clear expectations and hold team members accountable

  • Create a high-energy, customer-focused team culture

  • Handle all disciplinary actions, including terminations when necessary

Event Planning & Execution


  • Plan, organize, and execute multiple in-store and off-site events throughout the year

  • Coordinate staffing, inventory, signage, and logistics for each event

  • Work with ownership on promotional ideas and event strategy

  • Ensure events drive traffic, increase sales, and strengthen brand presence

  • Evaluate event performance and continuously improve future execution

Financial & Administrative


  • Manage labor costs and scheduling efficiently

  • Handle cash management, deposits, and reporting

  • Maintain accurate records and operational systems

  • Communicate regularly with ownership on performance and needs

Qualifications


  • Proven experience managing a retail store or similar operation

  • Experience planning and executing events or promotions is strongly preferred

  • Strong leadership and decision-making ability

  • Experience with inventory management and purchasing

  • Comfortable hiring, training, and managing a team

  • Highly organized and detail-oriented

  • Strong work ethic with a hands-on approach

  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-traffic tourist market

What We’re Looking For


  • Someone who takes ownership, not just direction

  • A problem-solver who doesn’t wait to be told what to do

  • A leader who can build and maintain a strong team

  • A person who understands that retail is detail and execution

  • Someone who can create energy in the store through events and promotions
