Job Advert Summary
- Yellow Zebra Optical is looking for a commercially astute distribution and supply chain leader to run the operational backbone that supports a large optometry and audiology retail and franchise network.
- This is a senior management role with serious commercial weight. The successful person will work closely with the Group Chief Operations Officer and other Group Chief Officers, lead a high-performing team, and take accountability for the discipline behind supplier value, landed cost, stock availability, fulfilment, logistics and distribution performance.
- This role owns the supply-side commercial engine: supplier negotiations, sourcing, import economics, cost build-up, inventory, warehousing, logistics, product availability and the service levels that enable Retail to make strong consumer-facing decisions.
The mandate
- Lead supplier negotiations and manage supplier relationships to secure value, quality, continuity of supply and favourable commercial terms.
- Own landed-cost discipline, foreign exchange exposure awareness, stock planning, working capital, supplier rebates and distribution margin inputs.
- Run a reliable, scalable distribution platform across procurement, imports, warehousing, fulfilment, logistics, customer service and cross-border support.
- Provide Retail and the GCOO with accurate cost, availability, stock, margin and service-level intelligence to inform retail pricing and commercial decisions.
- Lead the Distribution leadership team across operations, product, finance and relevant systems support.
- Use data and operational discipline to improve service levels, stock turn, aged inventory, cost-to-serve and order fulfilment quality.
Minimum Requirements
Experience we are looking for
- 8-10 years' senior leadership experience in distribution, supply chain, procurement, logistics, FMCG, retail, healthcare or a related commercial environment.
- Proven experience in supplier negotiation, import/export management, stock planning, cost optimisation and cross-border trade.
- Strong understanding of landed cost, margin management, working capital, foreign exchange exposure and cost-to-serve.
- A relevant tertiary degree in Supply Chain Management, Operations, Commerce, Business Administration, Finance or a related field.
Success looks like
- Stronger supplier value and clearer commercial input into retail pricing decisions.
- Improved product availability, order fulfilment, stock turn and service-level performance.
- A distribution team that is commercially astute, accountable and operationally disciplined.
- A supply chain platform that supports franchisee success, retail growth and future expansion.
- If you enjoy the pressure of commercial negotiation, operational detail and leading teams where every decision has a real effect on stock, service, franchisees and customers, this role offers a rare platform to make distribution a genuine advantage.
Duties and Responsibilities
What this role requires
- Commercial negotiation strength: You can sit across from suppliers, understand the economics, and secure value without damaging long-term partnerships.
- Supply chain command: You understand imports, warehousing, stock, logistics, service levels, working capital and the practical cost of poor availability.
- Operational resilience: You can build rhythm, control and accountability in a busy distribution environment that supports a national network.
- Cross-functional maturity: You can partner with Retail and ensure Retail has the right cost and availability intelligence.
- People leadership: You can lead and mentor capable teams with clarity, urgency, trust, empowerment and high standards.
What this is not
- This is not a warehouse-only role.
- This is not a procurement role limited to chasing price reductions.
- This is not a role for someone who sees distribution as separate from franchisee success and customer experience.
- This is not an executive title appointment; it is a senior management role with a highly visible portfolio and close exposure to Group leadership.
- This is not a role where RSP is owned by Distribution. Distribution owns the cost, supply and service intelligence that enables good retail pricing possible in a separate retail space.

- Spec-Savers South Africa is looking for a commercially astute, operationally sharp retail leader to help shape the next chapter of one of South Africa's most recognised optometry and audiology franchise networks.
- This is not a caretaker role. It is a demanding senior management appointment for someone who can sit close to the Group Chief Operations Officer, translate strategy into disciplined execution, and lead a young, high-performing team through growth, complexity and commercial trade-offs.
- The Operating Officer - Retail will lead the consumer-facing and franchise-facing engine of the business: franchise operations, retail performance, RSP governance, store growth, retail finance and digital enablement. The mandate is simple to describe and hard to execute: strengthen franchisee profitability, improve customer and store outcomes, and build a retail operating model that can scale.
The Mandate
- Own the retail commercial agenda, including retail selling price, franchisee economics, promotions, customer value and store performance.
- Lead and support the retail leadership team across operations, finance, medical equipment, shopfitting, IT enablement and audiology.
- Work closely with the Group Chief Operations Officer and other Group Chief Officers to convert Group strategy into practical retail execution.
- Partner with the Operating Officer - Distribution so stock availability, cost inputs, product range and retail pricing work together without duplicated ownership.

- Use data, market insight and financial discipline to identify growth opportunities, underperformance and the interventions required.
Minimum Requirements
Experience we are looking for

- Strong understanding of franchise systems, retail pricing, store economics, customer experience and performance improvement.
- Experience leading multidisciplinary teams across operations, finance, IT, projects or franchise support.
- A relevant tertiary degree in Business Management, Retail Management, Commerce, Operations, Finance or a related field.
Success looks like
- A clearer, more disciplined retail commercial model with strong RSP governance.
- Improved franchisee confidence, store performance and network support.
- Retail teams that are aligned, accountable and growing in capability.
- Commercial decisions that balance customer value, franchisee profitability and Group sustainability.
- If you are energised by commercially complex retail, franchisee relationships, high standards and the chance to help build something stronger from inside an already successful national network, this role will ask a lot of you - and give you the platform to make a visible difference.
Duties and Responsibilities
What this role requires
- Commercial judgement: You understand RSP, margin, franchisee return, competitor positioning, affordability and the difference between revenue that looks good and growth that lasts.
- Retail operating discipline: You know how to improve store performance through standards, rhythms, regional support, projects and accountability.
- Franchise network sensibility: You can influence owner-operators through trust and evidence, not title or authority.
- People leadership: You can stretch a young, capable team while keeping standards high, decisions clear and energy constructive.
- Execution under complexity: You are comfortable making trade-offs across pricing, growth, customer experience, store projects, support costs and stakeholder expectations.
What this is not
- This is not a purely strategic role removed from the realities of franchise operations.
- This is not a role for someone who only manages through reports and meetings.
- This is not an executive title appointment; it is a senior management role with real influence, real accountability and close exposure to Group leadership.
- This is not a retail role where pricing, customer experience and franchisee economics can be treated separately.
