UNIQLO Australia Pty Ltd

As the leading brand of the Fast Retailing Group, UNIQLO has more than 2,500 stores around the world, Australia stands as a key market for UNIQLO in establishing its brand in the Asia and Oceania. UNIQLO opened the first store in Melbourne, in April 2014, and as of today has expanded to 41 stores including EC business.

To support our continued business expansion in Australia, we are actively recruiting new graduates to join UNIQLO as UNIQLO Management Candidates (UMC).

What you’ll do as a UMC

As a UNIQLO Management Candidate (UMC), your journey begins in one of our Australian stores, with the goal of becoming a UNIQLO Store Manager within 12 months. From day one, you’ll learn from the ground up—starting with foundational tasks such as cleaning, folding, and replenishment—to fully understand and embody UNIQLO’s operational standards and customer-first philosophy. Throughout the program, you’ll also receive hands-on training in core retail management skills, including:

• Delivering UNIQLO’s exceptional customer service and maintaining brand experience;
• Supervising, motivating, and developing your team to drive performance and retention;
• Creating and managing effective work schedules to ensure smooth store operations;
• Assessing and implementing visual merchandising to meet brand guidelines;
• Monitoring inventory levels and identifying operational improvements to drive efficiency.

You’ll go through monthly evaluations with your manager and our training center to track your development, identify areas for growth, and prepare for your Store Manager promotion interview after 12 months.

At UNIQLO, we help you build the skills and knowledge to grow your career. Successful UMC will progress to Store Manager and, over time, explore opportunities in senior store operational roles or challenge other functional roles.
