Visual Merchandising
If you've got an eye for detail and a keen interest in design, this could be the perfect area for you.
Visual Merchandising – Section Managers
Our Visual Merchandising team are responsible for keeping our stores in tip-top condition and work across all our departments (from Clothing and Home to our coffee shop, Café Revive) to create an in-store look that gets people talking.
The team is very commercially aware and keeps a close eye on what products are selling well. They can then use this information to dress windows and create enticing displays that make our items even more attractive. They also have a lot of influence on the design of our store layouts and make sure our products are promoted effectively during key selling periods (such as Christmas).
Your role and what you’ll need to do it
Using your talent for getting the best out of any retail space, you’ll make sure all areas of the store are working together to drive sales on key product ranges. Ensuring the right resources are in place for each department, you’ll use your knowledge of current trends on the high street to create displays that appeal to customers of all ages and tastes. You’ll also act as a style guardian, making sure everything in store reflects and emphasises the Your Marks & Spencer brand.
To achieve all this you’ll need a commitment to high standards – even when the pressure is on – and the enthusiasm to motivate your team to be as passionate about detail as you are. Management experience in a similar, fast moving retail business will also be essential.
