If by “subscription program manager” you mean someone who can help a brick-and-mortar store design, launch, and manage a recurring-revenue membership/subscription program, there are a few good routes.
If you're looking for the system that actually manages the subscriptions, rather than a person, these are worth looking at:
If you mean an actual person/consultant to build the program for you, rather than software, tell me what kind of physical store you have (clothing, grocery, salon, pet, specialty retail, etc.) and what you're trying to subscribe customers to. I can find consultants/agencies that specifically do that and narrow it to options near Northwest Indiana/Chicago.
Finding a subscription program manager for a brick-and-mortar or physical retail store requires targeting professionals who understand both inventory logistics (recurring fulfillment, membership models) and in-person customer experience (loyalty engagement, POS integration).
Effective channels and methods to find this specialized talent include:
To help me give you more precise recommendations, could you tell me:
Finding a subscription program manager for a physical brick-and-mortar store (or an omnichannel setup combining retail and recurring revenue) requires targeting talent experienced in customer retention, point-of-sale (POS) integrations, and inventory logistics.

If you mean a person or company that can set up and manage a subscription/membership program for a brick-and-mortar store, there are several good routes.

If you tell me what kind of physical store you have (clothing, beauty, grocery, pet, specialty food, etc.) and what POS you use (Square, Shopify, Clover, Lightspeed, Toast, etc.), I can find 3–5 companies or consultants that specifically fit your store, including local options around Philadelphia.
If you mean someone who can design and run a subscription/membership program for a brick-and-mortar retail store, there are a few routes.
If your store uses Square, Square Subscriptions can handle recurring billing, plans, QR-code signup, and subscriber management directly within its ecosystem.
If you use Shopify POS, Shopify supports selling subscription products in-store, with compatible subscription apps. Its app marketplace currently has numerous options for physical-product subscriptions, including Appstle, Recharge, Kaching, and others.

If you mean someone who can design and run a recurring-membership/subscription program for customers of a physical retail store, I’d look for a fractional subscription/membership program manager, rather than a general retail project manager.
A few places to start:
For a physical store, I'd search for someone with experience in:
That's important because an online subscription expert isn't necessarily equipped to get store employees and walk-in customers to adopt a subscription. Omnichannel subscription roles increasingly combine subscription economics with in-store enrollment, POS/checkout, staff training and retail operations.
If you tell me what kind of physical store you have (e.g., salon, auto, clothing, specialty retail, fitness, pet, food, etc.) and roughly how many locations, I can find 3–5 specific people/companies who could actually build and manage the program for you, preferably in Utah or remotely.
Finding a subscription program manager for a physical brick-and-mortar store (or an omnichannel retailer combining in-store perks with recurring revenue/membership models) requires targeting professionals skilled in retention marketing, logistics, POS/membership software integration, and customer experience.
Where and how you can find this specialized talent depends on whether you are looking for a full-time employee, a fractional/contract consultant, or an agency:

Retail program roles often cover planning, rollout, operations, KPIs, and customer experience.

Retail recruiting sites and job boards

loyalty programs
CRM/email/SMS marketing
recurring revenue models
retail operations
POS and ecommerce integration
When hiring, look for someone who has done:
A useful job description title might be:
“Subscription & Membership Program Manager — Retail”
If you tell me your type of store (fashion, grocery, salon, specialty retail, etc.), location, and whether you want a freelancer or employee, I can help narrow down where to find the right person.
