How to Apply

Store Manager – Belfast (1 year Maternity Cover)

About us

Making shoes, quality ones, is not an easy task. They are a complex product that

require over 120 processes to put together. We know how to blend fashion

seamlessly with fit and quality to create that unique feeling you get when slipping

on the perfect pair. Our products are fashion focused yet comfortable, flattering

yet fit beautifully, of superior quality yet affordable.

Perhaps it’s because they’ve been in our founder’s family for four generations or

because we’ve been doing what we do for over a quarter of a century; footwear

and accessories are in our blood.

We’re a family business which is reflected in the open and friendly culture. We’re

small enough for you to have a voice and big enough for there to be plenty of

progression opportunities.

We’re also making steps to build a more sustainable future. We’re committed to

reducing our carbon emissions and are working with the BRC Climate Action

Roadmap to work towards achieving net zero targets across the retail industry by

2040. Head to our website for more details.

Our future is bursting with opportunity. We’re opening new stores and growing

our wholesale, international and online business. We’ve also invested in an

amazing new office in the heart of West London to enable us to fulfil our creativity

and work collaboratively. There couldn’t be a better time to join. You belong at

Dune!

About the role
