Are you a passionate and experienced Visual Merchandiser with a strong multi-site background, proven training ability, and an eye for both creative execution and commercial results? Do you thrive in the field and love being hands-on in stores, but also want to influence national visual strategy?

We’re looking for a Senior Field Visual Merchandiser to oversee visual excellence across SA, WA, VIC, TAS and the ACT – supporting store teams, collaborating with key stakeholders, and owning the implementation of impactful, data-led VM strategies.

About the Role:

In this highly autonomous and collaborative role, you’ll work closely with the Visual Merchandising leadership and Head Office teams to:

  • Own the execution of VM principles and direction across your region.
  • Train, mentor and uplift retail teams to deliver consistent, commercially effective visual merchandising.
  • Adapt national VM guidelines for store-specific needs without compromising brand standards.
  • Gather insights from the field and use sales data to influence and improve broader VM strategy.
  • Act as a true business partner – bringing findings, trends, and solutions to help shape future direction.
  • Support store openings, closures, and refits to ensure VM is integrated from the start.
  • Travel frequently to maintain visual consistency and retail team engagement across the portfolio.

What You’ll Bring:

  • Minimum 5 years’ experience in visual merchandising, with at least 2+ years in a senior or field-based multi-site role.
  • Ideally fast-paced, high-volume fashion or lifestyle retail background
  • Experience managing or supporting a large store portfolio (doesn’t need to match this exact size).
  • Strong understanding of VM principles and how to scale them across different formats and layouts.
  • Excellent people leadership skills – you’re a natural coach who empowers retail teams.
  • Strong commercial acumen – you know how to link VM to sales performance and use data to drive decisions.
  • Ability to work autonomously, manage multiple priorities and deliver consistently across territories.
  • Confident in building relationships across departments, from Store Managers to the Visual and Property teams.

Tools & Skills:

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and visual merchandising presentation tools.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills – written and verbal.
  • Strong time management and project planning capabilities.

Why This Role?

  • Make a genuine impact by shaping in-store execution and influencing national VM direction.
  • Join a collaborative, fast-paced retail environment where your voice will be heard.
  • Travel across diverse regions and lead the visual experience in some of the brand’s most important markets.
  • Competitive salary package, field-based flexibility, and ongoing professional development.

If you’re a confident, creative VM leader who thrives in the field and enjoys driving strategy through action and insight – we want to hear from you.
