If you're passionate about retail, technology, customer experience, and merchandising excellence, love turning commercial priorities into impactful in-store experiences, and enjoy working with a wide network of stakeholders, this could be the perfect role for you.

From product launches and retail activations to planogram management and customer journey optimisation, you'll ensure Samsung's products are presented consistently, effectively, and to the highest standard.
WHAT YOU’LL BE UP TO
- Own the merchandising and space planning strategy across Samsung retail fixtures and displays, ensuring product placement supports commercial objectives and customer engagement.
- Develop, maintain, and optimise planograms across multiple retail formats, ensuring alignment with launches, activations, and business priorities.
- Work closely with Activations & Operations, Channel Teams, Retail Operations, and key stakeholders to define product hierarchy, placement strategies, and customer journeys.
- Lead the end-to-end delivery of merchandising activities, ensuring planograms and retail updates are approved and implemented ahead of critical deadlines.
- Partner with external agencies to manage planogram platforms, continuously improving user experience, compliance, and operational efficiency.
- Support product launches by defining merchandising requirements, fixture updates, display changes, and security solutions.
- Collaborate with Samsung HQ teams to ensure global merchandising standards and best practices are adopted across the UK & Ireland retail estate.
- Conduct regular retail visits to assess merchandising execution, validate compliance, and identify opportunities for improvement.
- Manage merchandising databases, fixture inventories, compliance tools, and retail systems, ensuring data accuracy and integrity.
- Analyse sales performance, customer behaviour, and retail insights to identify optimisation opportunities and improve commercial outcomes.
