This includes window displays, product presentation, and campaigns developed by the concept department. Furthermore, you will work on store rearrangements, styling of mannequins, and developing VM competence in the region to ensure a visually inspiring and sales-oriented impression in all stores.

Based on MQ's business, strategic, conceptual, and visual guidelines, you will work on enhancing the visual sales environment, ensuring mechanical sales, and inspiring customers.

Your responsibilities as an RVM:

• Optimize mechanical sales within your geographical area through visual merchandising.

• Be the central VM department's extended arm in stores and be involved in supporting and developing the store concept.
• Ensure that the stores' layout in terms of interior, signage, and lighting always follows MQ Marqet's store concept.
• Ensure continuous and documented follow-up of VM work.
• Inspire, excite, develop, and provide feedback to BC, regarding both their own store and projects.
• If needed, participate in other visual projects in the company.
