THE ROLE
You're the supporter, the operator and the team player. You obsess about delivering what the customer wants through effective and timely product allocation. You deliver the right products, in the right quantities and options to the right channels, at the right times, to maximise the most productive sell through.

  • Support retail and vm to execute action plans that drive trade and gross profit

THE WINNING SKILLS
You're a systems and process champion; you have high attention to detail and accuracy

  • You love retail; you understand the landscape and know what it takes to succeed in a fast paced, high volume environment
  • Excel is your best friend; you are the data guru when it comes to VLOOKUP and pivot tables
  • You're fast, efficient and organised

  • Competitive salary packaging – ensuring we are constantly benchmarking to industry
  • An Employee Assistance Program for you and your family
  • Returning from maternity leave (or primary carer parental leave)? Work part-time and get paid full-time for 2 months, all part of supporting you during your transition back to work

About Cotton On Group

Our purpose has always been to make a positive difference in people’s lives, and our team and customers are at the heart of this.

We started in 1988, with our first ‘shop’ being the boot of a Ford Bronco parked at The Beckley Market in Geelong, Australia. Inside? A stack of denim jackets; it was the start of something big.

Our vision is to take our eight Aussie lifestyle brands to the world, delivering Good along the way. And we know that our responsibility goes far beyond selling great products. We work to prioritise people and the planet, while making products our customers love, ones that we can all be proud of.

We’re a diverse bunch from all around the world who love to think big. We live for a challenge and give anything a go. We work hard and pride ourselves on creating an environment free from hierarchy and ego. One that promotes creativity and self-expression, allowing our team to do what they do best. We look after our people 24/7 – not just when they’re at work, but outside of it too. Since day one, our team members have been like great mates to us – and you look after your mates. We support and empower our team members to be the healthiest versions of themselves. And we keep it real, always.

We’re customer-obsessed in everything we do, and believe us when we say the obsession is real!

When you join our team, you’re part of something bigger – you’re here to be inspired, to learn, to do the right thing, and above all else, to make a positive difference.

20,000 people. 8 brands. 20 countries. 1,300 stores (and counting) and one life-changing Foundation. That's Cotton On Group.
