  • You love interacting with customers. You set a great example for the rest of the team with your hands-on mentality, enthusiasm, and passion for delivering a fantastic customer experience.
  • You are not afraid to take the initiative where your Store Manager is absent. That’s the sign of a great Assistant Store Manager!
  • You know how to play a part in creating a great team who share your passion and vision to make every shopping experience outstanding. You take pride in mentoring employees, seeing them grow and having fun too!

  • You are flexible when it comes to working weekends, evenings and holidays as necessary
On top of this, we expect that you will live and demonstrate our Guiding Principles: Live with Integrity, Act Courageously, Be Curious, Act with Empathy, and Persevere. What’s in it for you? We offer comprehensive benefits that encourage mental, physical, and financial well-being for all VF associates. When it comes to benefits, we’re the total package. Most companies say they offer a competitive salary, an amazing bonus and pension scheme and staff discounts (btw we offer 50%!). And we offer the same. Only different. Along with this you will have:
  • Career ownership, enabling you to build your knowledge and experience across different brands
  • A supportive feedback-based culture where respect and integrity guide us in what we do
  • Tailored training. From an induction to ongoing online and face-to-face training sessions, we are committed to helping you grow, both professionally and personally
Free to Be We strive to foster a culture of belonging based on respect, connection, openness and authenticity. We are committed to building and maintaining a workplace that celebrates the diversity of our associates, allowing them to bring their authentic selves to work every day. As an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer, VF is committed to support disadvantaged groups whilst providing equal opportunities for both VF associates and applicants alike. If you liked what you have read and want to join our team then we would be keen to hear from you! Due to the high volume of candidates we receive, we will only contact successful applicants for the interview stage. #readytoapply #LI-FM1 R-20260515-0010
