Product Manager Visual Merchandising Manager (Store-based) – Zara Reading

Full-time (40 hours per week)

At Zara, our stores are where the action happens. We’re looking for a Product Manager to lead the commercial performance of a key product area in our Reading store—someone who is hands-on, commercially sharp and thrives in a fast-paced retail environment.

The role

As a Product Manager, you will own your department’s performance—translating product, customer and trading insight into clear, fast actions on the shop floor. You’ll drive availability, deliver impactful newness and set the pace for daily trading, leading your team through constant change.

What you’ll be doing

Trading & Product Performance

  • Own daily and weekly trading, turning insights into clear action plans
  • Read and act on commercial reports
  • Identify opportunities, risks and priorities
  • Drive sell-through by balancing newness, best sellers and stock depth

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.
