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 take our outlet stores further, we are looking for energetic, creative and open-minded talent. Do you want to make an impact and see your success directly in front of you?

Together with the Area Management & Retail Team, you implement strategic decisions.
