**3. Guest Experience & Retail Training**
- Supervise the design and deployment of immersive in-store guest experiences aligned with brand rituals.
- Oversee training experience content in collaboration with the Retail Training Manager.
- Define signature touchpoints and rituals to elevate guest satisfaction and brand affinity.

- 10+ years in global retail development, architecture, or luxury design management.
- Proven leadership in overseeing retail projects across international markets and formats.
- Strong understanding of spatial design, customer experience, and operational feasibility.
- Excellent project management, budgeting, and cross-cultural communication skills.
