UNIQLO Manager Candidate
Our Uniqlo Manager Candidate program is a year-long intensive retail master class, designed to equip you with the skills to qualify as a Store Manager on successful completion of the programme.
We believe that to be an effective Store Manager, you have to start with the basics, and earn the confidence of the teams you will later go on to manage. You will be learning the Japanese standard of customer service, cleaning and professional organization. As a team player, you will be working alongside your team during morning and evening shifts, on weekends but also through holiday periods.
Become a Business Leader
As a high calibre store manager, you will become a key player in Uniqlo’s expansion; responsible for growing the business and managing and developing your team members. You will also be building strong relationships with our headquarters, the “Store Support Centre”, giving feedback on local marketing, merchandising, HR and E-Commerce activities.
Development as UMC
The salesfloor is your training ground and our Fast Retailing Management and Innovation Centre will support your learning needs with regular classroom training to top up your knowledge and competencies.
It is not for those afraid of challenges; it is a rigorous introduction to life on the salesfloor. Upon completing the program, many candidates move progressively towards larger store management roles in their own country or globally. This UMC experience sets the stage for unrivaled opportunities where you carve your own career and your achievements are limited only by your effort and abilities.
