The Team PVH Creative Services is responsible for the architectural & interior design of digital showrooms, wellness , hospitality & workplaces for PVH. The department subsequently works hand in hand with (country based) Project Managers in order to execute and deliver dedicated projects. With regards to digital showrooms, PVH Creative Services is responsible for the design, execution & delivery of seasonal concepts (these change 4x year), on a global scale for TH and on a European scale for Calvin Klein & Nike UW. PVH Creative Services is also responsible for the concepts, design & roll-out of digital showrooms globally & the design of HQ/ wholesale architectural projects.

The seasonal showroom concepts are devised by the Showroom Designers within the Creative Services team. Your role is to enable the successful delivery of these concepts within physical environments, on schedule & within budget.

As Project Manager- Seasonal Showrooms, within the team you closely collaborate with: the designers, architects, showroom operations & the (digital) coordinators to ensure the project flow is organized and transparent, aligning all the parties & entities involved.

Outside the team but within the organization, you are in regular contact with: Divisional Merch teams, VM, Facilities, Security, IT & Tech, Digital & 3DX, Marketing, country PMs, country VMs, Finance.

Outside the organization, your main stakeholders are: GCs, external digital/ tech teams & vendors, set designers & builders, FF&E vendors, digital & print production, freelancers & agency temps.

As Project Manager- Seasonal Showrooms, you manage the budget & the project schedule, ensuring all tasks are assigned & completed within the required timelines and the project remains within the pre-determined budget.

You manage all in & outbound processes in support of the showroom build ups & take downs. You maintain our storages (on & off site) ensuring all databases are kept up to date & efficient.

Your previous experience of working on interior or set design projects enables you to have a great eye for detail & an understanding of creative briefs- you have the required imagination & creative vision to visualize the end goals.

You take initiative & enjoy taking ownership of your tasks- however you are also an absolute team player and always put the interests of your team & our projects ahead of your own.
