• Select and manage third party vendors, contractors and graphic designers.
• Work closely with state retail management teams and store managers to ensure the store is operationally ready before opening.
• Collaborate with marketing for store launches, ensuring grand openings are supported by strong marketing campaigns.
• Coordinate with IT to ensure all relevant technology systems (POS, security, networking) are installed and functional before launch.
