OVERVIEW

At Gymshark, our mission is to Unite the Conditioning Community. We do this by bringing together the Gymshark family – whether it be through a love of conditioning, wearing our product, following our athletes or viewing content across our various social platforms.

In October 2022, the 10th year of our existence, we opened our very first Retail Store - a Flagship on London’s prestigious Regent St. A permanent space in which our community can meet, shop, and work out.

This role exists to support the visual experience of all community members who visit the store, through inspiring displays and product presentation.

• Review performance of product collections, ensuring the customer journey is supported by clear product presentation and new product is always prominent.
• Maintain store signage, equipment and fixtures.
• Work closely with the Operations team, with clear communication about stock movement, new product lines, lines being removed and promotional preparation.
• Ensure the store is always ready to open, with all visual equipment and product moves completed prior to trading hours.
• Always be ready to support and engage with customers and assist with their needs.
• Work collaboratively with Customer Team Leads to receive feedback, listen to requirements and share insight on product performance to provide the best customer journey.
• Proactively keep informed about external brand activity, including window displays, key messages and promotional activity.
• Be ready to support, advise and direct, whether it’s for a class, to find product or just walked in to discover who we are, or get directions!
• Complete all required training within the set timeframe to ensure compliance, knowledge and safety is maintained.
• Inspire internal and external community with innovative and dynamic styling.
• Be a brand ambassador by demonstrating how our values show up, through the care of our community, our genuine interest in their stories and experience with Gymshark, and always being honest and open in all our interactions.
