Unlock Your Future with the UNIQLO Management Candidate Programme

Are you ready to fast-track your career with one of the world’s leading fashion brands? Join hundreds of ambitious graduates from around the globe in the UNIQLO Management Candidate (UMC) programme – a launchpad designed to propel your career to new heights.

As UNIQLO rapidly expands across the UK and Europe, including France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Luxemburg, Italy, and Poland, we’re on the lookout for fresh talent eager to lead with purpose and evolve with courage. This is your chance to make a real impact while growing alongside a global brand renowned for its high-quality, innovative, and affordable clothing.

What to expect in the UMC Programme:

Rotation 1. Month 1-4: Brand Ambassador

Start your journey on the shop floor, where you’ll become a customer service role model. Dive deep into our processes, handling fitting rooms, deliveries, replenishments, and more. Combined with hands-on experience, you’ll engage in business management workshops and discussions with your COO, setting the foundation for your future success. Every day will be a new adventure.

Rotation 2. Month 5-6: Supervisor

Step up to the role of Supervisor, where you’ll take on managerial responsibilities. Lead your team, shape daily schedules, provide training, and drive sales together on the shopfloor. You’ll also manage a specific product category for your store, and contribute to our corporate social responsibility initiatives.

Rotation 3. Month 7-12: Assistant Manager

Take your impact to the next level as an Assistant Manager. Support the Store Manager in optimising business performance, designing strategic shop floor layouts, and developing store members’ training plans. Experience the thrill of the challenge of surpassing expectations and driving the store to new heights. This rotation may require relocating to a different city in Spain if it is considered beneficial for your development.

Your capabilities will be rigorously evaluated throughout the programme to continuously foster your growth, preparing you to lead a multi-million revenue store as its manager.
