Job Description
Customer Experience Manager | Zara | UK & Ireland (Store-based)
About Us
Inditex is a global fashion retail group behind brands including Zara, Massimo Dutti, Pull&Bear, Bershka, Stradivarius, Oysho, and Zara Home.
At Zara, we create inspiring store experiences where fashion, product, and styling work together—turning the latest collections into ideas customers want to wear. It’s a creative, fast-moving environment with strong internal opportunities for people who love fashion and thrive on high standards.
The Role
As a Customer Experience Manager at Zara, you’ll own the storewide customer journey and omnichannel experience—setting service standards, building the routines that make them happen, and developing high-performing Customer Experts teams. You’ll directly lead Customer Experts and Team Leaders/Supervisors, and you’ll partner closely with the Store Manager/Deputy, Operations Manager, and Commercial Managers to turn busy moments into great experiences.
This is a full-time role requiring full flexibility, including evenings and weekends.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
