JOB DESCRIPTION

Department Manager

At Primark, we’re all about bringing you the latest trends in fashion, beauty, and homeware – always at amazing prices. Simply put: amazing fashion at amazing prices!

And now, we’re looking for an energetic and passionate Department Manager to help us keep the vibe going strong in our store. Ready to join the Primark family?

The Job:
At Primark, the customer always comes first – it’s what we call our Customer Promise. As a Department Manager, your mission is to boost sales in your area while making sure the shopping experience is top-notch.

You’ll be working hand in hand with the store’s management team to keep operations running smoothly and build a motivated, high-performing team. Depending on your department, you'll lead 2 to 3 Team Managers and their teams of about 10 to 30 people.

You’ll be in charge of everything from planning and stock to visual merchandising – and, of course, making sure our customers love shopping with us!

Here’s what you’ll be doing:
  • Plan your department’s daily operations – from sales goals to team schedules
  • Coach and support your team to deliver the best customer service – every day
  • Help recruit, onboard, and grow your Team Managers and Retail Assistants
  • Make sure everyone knows what they’re doing and stays engaged with clear daily task lists
  • Handle performance and absence management like a pro
  • Guide your team in creating fun, eye-catching displays that inspire customers and drive sales
  • Keep stock levels just right – maximizing sales and reducing loss, with smart use of our systems

Why Primark?
Because it’s not just a job – it’s the start of something great.

You’ll love working here if:
  • You’ve got retail management experience
  • You’re a natural communicator and team player
  • You’re a great coach and motivator
  • You speak Dutch fluently (French is a bonus!)
  • You’re flexible – available on different days and shifts
  • You stay cool under pressure and get things done
  • You’re creative, hands-on, and not afraid to take initiative
  • You think in solutions, not problems

What’s in it for you?
  • A competitive salary (PC 311 conditions)
  • Meal vouchers
  • 5 extra holidays per year (for full-time contracts)
  • A 15% staff discount
  • A fun, driven team where your ideas matter
  • Access to our Digital Learning Platform with tons of training and courses
  • And most of all – a super cool international work environment where no two days are the same

So, whether you're already managing a team or have experience as an Assistant Store Manager, Team Leader, or Supervisor in retail or hospitality — we want to hear from you!

Let’s make fashion fun (and affordable) together!
