Meta Lab Retail is redefining how customers experience technology in high-traffic, premium shopping destinations by bringing Meta Smart Glasses and Quest mixed-reality experiences to life through immersive, hands-on engagement in Roosevelt Field.

As the Store Manager, you will guide a compact, yet high-impact team focused on world-class product demonstrations, meaningful customer relationships, and measurable business results, while balancing customer passion, people development, operational excellence, and strong business acumen to uphold the Meta brand standard and customer promise.

These small-format locations—situated in premier malls and outdoor lifestyle centers—are designed to reinvent traditional retail engagement through immersive, hands-on experiences. Channel Partners, the exclusive talent and operations partner for Meta Retail, builds and leads the teams that bring these experiences to life. We’re seeking a customer-obsessed, people-first, tech-centric Store Manager to guide a high-performing team and deliver authentic, immersive interactions on behalf of Meta. This is experiential retail—not transactional retail.

Whether you're applying with Apollo, BDS, MAG, White Hawk, or BTR, you're joining the same team: Channel Partners. One network. One purpose. One great place to grow.
