      • Design and implement visual standards across Core and partner stores
      • Develop monthly planograms where Apple guidelines are not provided
      • Collaborate with the Accessories team to create compelling merchandising displays and product “stories”
      • Manage Visual Merchandisers and Store Marketing Champions to deliver best-in-class execution

      Brand & Stakeholder Management

      • Act as a brand custodian, ensuring all communications meet Apple and Core guidelines
      • Build and maintain strong relationships with:
        • Third-party suppliers and partners
        • Core suppliers
        • Cellular network marketing teams
      • Align all in-store activity with broader marketing objectives and business strategy
