Why job seekers choose Geotab:

IN A NUTSHELL… 

We've spent over a decade building a brand people genuinely love – through our products, our presence online, and the way we show up in the world. Now we're ready to show up in person. We’re opening our first Australian store in Melbourne’s CBD, and we're planning more, but a great store network doesn't build itself. Someone needs to find the right locations, negotiate the deals, manage the build-outs, lead the Store Managers, and stitch together the systems that make it all hold together. That's where you come in.

Our Retail Operations Manager will be the person behind the scenes making Bellroy's Australian retail presence real. While our Store Managers focus on the customer experience, you'll be focused on everything that makes that experience possible – scouting and securing sites, getting stores from signed lease to open doors, leading the team that runs them, and developing the operational playbook that lets us do this well and then do it again. 

If you've ever wanted to build a retail operation rather than inherit one, and you care about doing it at a company that actually walks the walk, we're a certified B Corp, and we'd love to talk.

We're looking for someone who gets energised by firsts, finds satisfaction in the operational detail, and wants to help us prove that retail can be done differently.

YOU COULD BE THE ONE IF YOU HAVE…

• 5+ years in retail operations, multi-site management, or similar environments (hospitality and franchise backgrounds welcome) with a track record of opening new sites and building a retail presence from early stages. You know how to bridge HQ strategy and what actually needs to happen on the floor
• Experience managing the commercial real estate process: site selection, lease negotiation, landlord relationships, and deal management
• The ability to manage fit-out projects on time and on budget, coordinating across internal teams and external contractors
• Direct experience leading and developing store managers or similar frontline leaders - setting clear expectations, giving direct feedback, and holding people accountable for performance
• Confidence shaping retail technology decisions. Not just working within existing systems, but advocating for the right tools and ensuring they're implemented in ways that actually serve our crew on the floor
• Strong commercial acumen - you can interrogate assumptions and make clear recommendations to senior leadership
• You build repeatable processes from scratch and document them so other people can follow
• You stay close to what's happening in retail -  trends, competitors, emerging markets - and you use that to sharpen where we go next.

Even if your background doesn't map perfectly to every point above, if you've built something in retail from the ground up and you're energised by what we're doing, we'd love to hear from you.

IN YOUR FIRST FEW MONTHS, YOU'D LIKELY…

• Spend time with Bellroy's retail leadership, getting across the growth strategy, brand standards, and understanding our culture, values, and products
• Work closely with our Melbourne Store Manager to shape the first. store experience together - from operational standards to opening day readiness
• Connect with the Retail Operations Manager for the US to share approaches and start building consistency where it makes sense
• Take ownership of the Australian site pipeline - review opportunities already in play, build relationships with brokers and landlords, and sharpen the criteria for where Bellroy should show up next
• Lead fit-out and construction timelines, building relationships with contractors and making sure builds are tracking to budget and schedule
• Understand the current retail technology stack and partner with our tech team on the implementation roadmap
• Share weekly updates with the retail leadership team on what you're learning, what's working, and where we need to make calls
• Sit down with the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Commercial Officer to evaluate the commercial case for new sites
• Map the Australian  retail landscape - who's doing interesting things, where the emerging opportunities are, and what the competitive dynamics look like in the markets we're considering.

About the role

As a Transaction Principal for Australia at Anthropic, you'll drive the commercial sourcing and transaction execution process for our Australian data center capacity deals. You'll lead RFP processes, negotiate term sheets, and serve as the central leader ensuring seamless stakeholder alignment from initial sourcing through lease execution.

This role is critical to securing the infrastructure that powers Anthropic's frontier AI systems in the region — you'll bridge commercial negotiations with complex internal coordination across legal, finance, engineering, and network teams, and partner closely with our Compute Markets team who own the Australia market strategy and government relationships. This is not an established leasing org; you'll be building process alongside execution.

Responsibilities:

• • Lead the RFP and commercial sourcing process for Australian data center deals, managing developer outreach, proposal evaluation, and competitive selection
  • Negotiate term sheets and manage the LOI process, structuring commercial terms that meet Anthropic's technical and business requirements while maintaining strong developer partnerships
  • Create the bridge from LOI to executed transaction, ensuring all commercial, technical, and legal requirements are satisfied for deal closure
  • Serve as project manager for cross‑functional stakeholder engagement — coordinating due diligence teams, internal and external legal counsel, network organization, platform engineers, and finance to ensure alignment prior to lease execution
  • Act as the single point of contact for auxiliary organizations including networks, deployments, and government relations, providing regular updates on transaction progress and leasing status
  • Develop and maintain transaction timelines, tracking critical‑path items and proactively identifying risks that could impact deal closure
  • Ensure all stakeholder requirements are captured and addressed in commercial agreements, translating technical and operational needs into contractual terms
  • Manage complex digital infrastructure development activities to a construction‑ready state, through a developer or directly
  • Marry the right projects, capital stacks, and developers at the right stages
  • Document and refine transaction processes and playbooks to enable scalable deal execution as Anthropic expands its infrastructure footprint in region
  • Partner with the Compute Markets Manager to prioritize sites and counterparties, and feed deal learnings back into Australia market strategy

You may be a good fit if you:

• Have 10+ years of experience in transaction management, commercial real estate, data center leasing, or infrastructure procurement
• Possess a proven track record of managing complex, multi‑stakeholder transactions from sourcing through execution
• Have strong negotiation skills with experience structuring term sheets, LOIs, and commercial agreements
• Excel at project management and can coordinate across legal, technical, finance, and operational teams simultaneously
• Have experience with RFP processes and competitive sourcing for large‑scale infrastructure or real estate transactions
• Have experience working in or with Australian markets, with knowledge of the local real estate and development landscape
• Are highly organized with strong attention to detail while maintaining focus on strategic deal objectives
• Can operate effectively in fast‑paced, ambiguous environments where processes are being built alongside execution
• Demonstrate exceptional communication skills and can coordinate effectively across time zones with HQ‑based teams and external partners

It's a bonus if you:

• • Have experience with data center or hyperscale infrastructure transactions specifically
  • Come from the development side of the industry rather than traditional brokerage/leasing — you understand how DC development works and how value is created (yield‑on‑cost, cap rates, development fees)
  • Understand technical requirements for AI/ML workloads including power density, cooling, and network connectivity
  • Have worked with legal teams on complex lease negotiations or infrastructure agreements
  • Understand utility coordination, power procurement, or energy considerations in data center transactions, particularly in the Australian context (NEM, grid connection)
  • Have relationships within the Australian data center developer and broker ecosystem
  • Have a background in corporate development, strategic partnerships, or infrastructure investment
  • Have experience in high‑growth technology companies managing infrastructure expansion
