• Monthly floorsets and zoning layouts
• Promotional rollouts and high-frequency signage updates
• Fixture placement, mannequins, and product display strategy
• Strong ability to brief creative needs and develop presentation guides for field teams
• Highly organized; must juggle multiple priorities and manage fast timelines
