Established in the heart of Launceston over 100 years ago, Watsons Jewellers is one of Tasmania’s most trusted and respected names in fine jewellery. A proudly family-owned and operated business, Watsons is renowned for its commitment to craftsmanship, quality, and personal service.

We don’t just sell jewellery - we help mark life’s most meaningful moments. From bespoke engagement rings and luxury timepieces to everyday elegance and heirloom restorations, Watsons combines generations of expertise with a deep understanding of our customers' needs. Our team shares a genuine passion for the art and symbolism of fine jewellery, and we take great pride in delivering an experience that is as enduring as the pieces we offer.

Located in the Launceston CBD, our beautifully curated showroom and in-house workshop reflect both our heritage and our dedication to innovation. As we look to the future, we’re excited to continue evolving while staying true to the values that have earned us our reputation.

And this is your opportunity to potentially join us as our Business Operations Manager.

Who are you?

Well, in addition to 5+ years retail operations experience at the management level, and an enthusiasm for the jewellery and watch industry, it’s likely that people will generally describe you as:

• Articulate and persuasive
• Commercially switched on
• Goal and outcomes-focused
• Comfortable asserting your opinion
• Sociable, while also “mission-focused”
• Comfortable looking for ways to improve processes
• Optimistic – but not rose-coloured glasses
• Decisive and action-oriented
• Comfortable holding people accountable
• A natural and inclusive leader
• You view the world objectively

If that’s you, then we’d love to hear from you!

• Setting targets

• Maximising margins
• Leading a positive and ‘abundant’ team environment
• Developing individual team capability

Please be advised that this role will have a start date in early September.
