About the Role

We’re looking for a proactive and highly organised Visual Merchandising Coordinator to support franchise partner markets across the Middle East, Israel, Turkey, Belgium, and Copenhagen. This is a critical role that sits at the heart of our global VM operations, bridging the gap between central VM strategy and its execution across diverse international markets.

• Translate central VM strategies into clear, actionable guidance tailored for regional implementation.

• Lead the development and organisation of an online resource hub for VM guidelines and tools.

• Partner with internal VM stakeholders to align franchise executions with brand expectations.

• Support seasonal and campaign launches with detailed execution guidance and tracking.

• Manage VM administrative tasks including distribution of toolkits, calendars, and updates.

• Monitor compliance and support feedback loops from franchise partners.

What We’re Looking For

• 3–5 years of Visual Merchandising experience within a retail environment (franchise or international markets a strong plus).

• Proven ability to coordinate across departments and cultures, with exceptional organisational and project management skills.

• A clear, concise communicator who thrives on structure and consistency.

• Comfortable handling multiple deliverables and stakeholders in a fast-paced setting.

• Experience supporting retail campaigns or seasonal transitions is advantageous.

• No specific tools required, but ease with shared drives and digital resources is essential.
