THE ROLE & THE TEAM

Our Zalando Outlet Stores are an important part of our offline strategy, of which we are particularly proud as an online platform for fashion and lifestyle. Our outlet stores across Germany are "Zalando you can touch." In a modern shopping experience, we give unsold fashion a second chance. To further advance our outlet stores, we are looking for energetic, creative and open-minded talents. Do you want to make a difference and see your success directly in front of you? Help us rethink fashion and become part of our teams - starting now.

As an Assistant Store Manager (all genders) in Hamburg you are responsible for the optimal management of your area and, in the absence of store management, for the entire store. You are responsible for the personal and professional development of up to 20 employees. As part of the Store Management Team, you make a significant contribution to the economic success of our store and its continuous development.
