Job Description:

Senior Visual Merchandiser

Banbury / BicesterCompetitive salary + benefitsFashion | Accessories | Lifestyle

This is a brilliant opportunity for a Senior Visual Merchandiser who wants to genuinely own the VM remit, rather than simply execute a brief created elsewhere.

We’re partnering with a fast-paced, entrepreneurial fashion and accessories business looking for someone to take real ownership of how its brands show up across retail.

This is NOT a role where you’ll simply:

  • Receive a VM pack from Head Office
  • Follow pre-set planograms
  • Implement somebody else’s creative direction

Instead, you’ll OWN it.

You’ll be responsible for shaping the visual merchandising approach from concept through to execution, including:

  • Creating the VM strategy and seasonal direction
  • Developing guidelines, principles and brand standards
  • Owning product placement, layouts and customer journey
  • Translating launches and campaigns into compelling retail environments
  • Making commercial decisions based on product performance and customer behaviour
  • Working closely with Retail, Brand, Marketing and Product teams
  • Visiting stores and ensuring standards are delivered consistently
  • Coaching store teams to understand the why, not just the execution
  • Continually evolving the VM approach as the retail estate grows

Who we’re looking for

You’ll already have strong VM experience within fashion, accessories, beauty or another design-led consumer brand, but importantly, you’ll have operated beyond pure execution.

We want someone who can say:

“I created that approach, I made those decisions, and I owned how it landed in stores.”

If you’ve been looking for a role where you can have genuine autonomy, influence and ownership of the full visual merchandising remit, I’d love to speak with you.
