Expanding teams, capabilities, and ambitions. And thanks to our incredible size and scale, more opportunities for you and more amazing experiences for our customers. As a Visual Merchandising Manager at Primark, progress is yours to own at the forefront of expanding this fashion revolution in the United States.

Our colleagues are the heart of everything we do – we’re caring, dynamic and we succeed together. As a Visual Merchandising Manager, you’ll serve as the creative representative for visual presentation both within the store and across the board of business, partnering with the store teams and Regional VM Manager.

What You’ll Do

As a Visual Merchandising Manager, you will be responsible for the visual proposition across the store and lead and develop a high performing visual merchandising team. Collaborating with the Store Management team, you will deliver impactful visual displays that exceed customer expectations and maximizes sales. The Visual Merchandising Manager is the creative ambassador for visual merchandising, in-store. A true leader, you will coach and consult with colleagues to deliver an inspiring visual proposition that is aligned to Primark’s Visual Merchandising standards.

Visual Merchandising Managers have the power to impact the business daily, by understanding the Primark customer needs, shopping habits, fashion preferences, and reflecting the latest trend through excellent product presentations, window and mannequin styling.

Creativity is yours as you manage and oversee the launch of new visual merchandising campaigns, providing direction and inspiration to the visual merchandising team to deliver effective campaigns.

As the leader, you will hire, train, coach and motivate a team of Visual Merchandisers. You will ensure your team is adhering to operating standards, maintain cost related to stock, and following Primark guidelines on POS and pricing for displays. This is crucial to ensuring visual merchandising is contributing to an exceptional shopping experience for every customer, a positive work environment for every colleague, and maximizing sales.

What You’ll Get

We’re committed to your success and will provide you with a robust onboarding period. Here, you’ll be empowered to succeed. As we rapidly expand across the globe, we’ll give you the tools that you need to excel. We’ll also offer you competitive benefits and work life balance – we know your life outside of the store is important.

What You’ll Bring
