MAAP was born in a city with an unhealthy obsession with sport, style and coffee; this Retail Store Manager role will help us blend all three elements in a space that defines innovation, community, and culture, to continue to propel cycling forward.
Our newest MAAP LaB in Sydney will be more than an experiential retail store presenting the very best of MAAP products in an elevated environment - it will be a hub for creative dialogue, collaboration, and a meeting place for the local community on and off the bike, extending the cultural influence and audience of the MAAP brand. Inside, you’ll discover the latest MAAP products, a coffee hub serving exceptional brews, and a space that hosts events and weekly shop rides.
