Concession Manager, Tommy Hilfiger & Calvin Klein John Lewis Norwich (Maternity Cover)

Design Your Future at PVH. Our stores are the life and soul of our business. They act as our main touch points with our ever-evolving consumer base. As the world of retail evolves, we believe that for all other parts of the chain to work, our stores must set the tone of what our two brands are all about. Our locations are paramount, first-class experience must be a given and our in-store standards should never be questionable.

The Concession Manager plays a key role in achieving these standards, leading by example, embracing our entrepreneurial spirit, and inspiring their teams through their passion and belief in our brands.
