Pool and spa supply retailer with 900+ stores across North America
Leslie's operates a geographically distributed retail footprint of over 900 locations across 35 U.S. states plus Canada, Bahamas, Brazil, Italy, Australia, and New Zealand—a sprawl that explains their heavy operational and logistics hiring. The tech stack is enterprise-grade (Dynamics 365, Workday, Blue Yonder) but shows the fingerprints of a retail organization mid-transformation: active D365 Phase 2 rollout, WMS implementation pending, and a six-figure backlog of open roles (877 active, 758 posted last month) weighted heavily toward sales and operations floor staffing, not engineering.
Notable leadership hires: Shift Lead, Chief Marketing Officer
