About the Role

If you're passionate about creating customer-led retail experiences and love turning data into smart, space-efficient solutions, this is your chance to make a real impact.

You’ll be joining a collaborative, forward-thinking team that’s always looking for better ways to serve our customers and support our teams.

This is a 12-month fixed term contract role, working Part-Time, 3 days per week. It will be based out of our Burnley Support Office in Melbourne, where we support and embrace hybrid working.

About you

You’re someone who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and enjoys solving complex problems with practical solutions. You’re curious, analytical and confident working with data but also know how to bring people together to get things done.

You’ll be joining a team that values openness, teamwork and continuous improvement. We’re big on supporting each other and inspiring you to give it a red hot go.

Proven experience in space planning, ideally within a retail environment
Strong analytical skills and confidence working with large datasets
Proficiency in Excel, PowerPoint and Access
