  • VM That Turns Heads: Work with our Creative Team to design show-stopping window displays, in-store setups, and retail spaces that make customers do a double-take (and then grab their wallets).
  • Keep It On-Brand: Make sure everything screams RFO—from our store vibes to our product presentations.
  • Store Layout Magic: Maximize space, improve customer flow, and create smooth shopping journeys.
  • New Store Openings: Team up with Store Design to plan layouts, fixtures, and visuals. Lead all VM activities so that when we open a store, it’s a mic-drop moment.
  • Seasonal Workshops: Lead training sessions with our Field & Ops teams to land the hottest VM strategies each season, taking the lead from our Merchandise Team.
  • Marketing Execution: Own the marketing calendar, brief suppliers on print elements, and make sure everything lands in stores like a well-planned fashion heist.
  • Collaboration Is Key: Work hand-in-hand with the Field Visual Team, Merch, and Ops teams to bring VM dreams to life. Teamwork makes the displays work.
  • Clear Communication & Flawless Execution: Create crystal-clear store comms (campaign launches, promos, updates) and upload them on time—no last-minute scrambles (unless we really need to!).
  • Reporting: Keep a sharp eye on store executions, give regular feedback, and make sure the magic is happening where it matters.
  • Train the VM Superstars: Coach the Field Visual Team so they live and breathe top-tier VM standards.
  • Budget Boss: Keep VM costs in check while still delivering the wow-factor.

Qualification & Experience
  • 3-5 years of VM experience—you’ve been in the game, you know the tricks, and you can style a store like a pro. Bonus points if it’s in clothing retail.
  • Supplier wrangling skills—if you’ve worked with VM suppliers before, great! If not, no stress—we’ll turn you into a deal-making, print-briefing machine.
  • Head Office experience preferred but it's not a deal breaker. If you’ve been in the trenches of retail, you’re already ahead.
Skills
  • A visual storyteller—someone who can make product look so good they practically sell themselves.
  • A creative genius who thinks outside the box (and sometimes inside it, if it helps with displays).
  • A confident communicator—because great VM is nothing without collaboration.
  • Someone who lives for aesthetics but also understands sales-driving tactics.
  • Organized- Juggling multiple projects, deadlines, and stakeholders.
Behaviours
  • Action Oriented - readily takes on new challenges and opportunities with a sense of urgency and eagerness.
  • Communicates Effectively - conveys information and communicates ideas in a clear, concise and impactful manner.
  • Courage - confronts and tackles challenging situations with courage.
  • Decision Quality - consistently makes timely, well-rounded and informed decisions.
  • Ensures Accountability - takes accountability and ensures others are held to account on agreed upon performance targets.
  • Manages Complexity - interprets and simplifies complex and contradictory information when resolving organisational problems.
  • Plans and Aligns - develops plans and prioritises initiatives that align to the organisational goals and objectives.
  • Tech Savvy - leverages new technology to enhance productivity, improve problem solving, and support business growth.
