If I were you, I would sit down with a pencil and paper and document all of the tasks you consider to be part of your retail management position. Also list all of your responsibilities. Then review the list for items that are consistent with your current position and the liaison position. Don't try to get too fancy with the wording, as it looks less credible.
The reality is that a retail manager, if involved in the day-to-day operations, is very customer-service oriented. I don't see a this as being too difficult to overcome. Anyone who doesn't think retail is customer service is out of touch.
Good luck!
