Printemps Group places a large focus on sales careers. Serving as our first-line brand ambassadors, our sales teams play critical roles in the quality of the shopping experiences we offer. Their ambition is to create a unique and unforgettable moment for each and every customer.
The Purchasing teams’ mission is to identify and buy the most appealing fashion, luxury and beauty products for our customers. They are organised across various market segments ranging from Accessories, Women's Fashion, Men's Fashion to Beauty and Home. The Purchasing Department has two main responsibilities—build the offer and negotiate the partnership terms with more than 3,500 brands.
We aim to offer our customers an omnichannel experience. The online business therefore represents a major strategic focus for the Group. This ambition is led by Placedestendances.com, Citadium.com and madeindesign.com. Our digital teams combine many different skills—digital marketing, web development, photography, web design, e-business offering and web logistics.
Designing the positioning of our brands, developing brand awareness and traffic, nurturing the image of the House, creating a unique shopping experience: these are the main missions of the marketing and communications teams.
Within the Marketing and Communications Department and in the stores, the artistic and merchandising teams are the guarantors of Printemps' image on all our in-store and out-of-store communication media. Their mission? To guarantee the coherence of our overall image with a view to commercial performance.
These teams define, manage and optimise Printemps Group’s supply chain on a daily basis. Their challenge is to ensure that the supply chain increases the performance of the company as well as adding value to our customers’ shopping experience.
The Supply team ensures the availability of products at stores, maintaining a solid relationship with our suppliers, as well as with Purchasing, Sales and Logistics. The Logistics team manage product flows and stock while ensuring cost optimisation.
The Information Systems teams define the IT strategy, and provide technical support, maintenance and training. They anticipate the Group’s operational needs and fulfil them by proposing effective solutions.
These teams provide day-to-day legal and financial support to the other operational departments. They also play a major advising role for the leadership team. They are split into the Finance, Audit, Management Accounting and Legal teams.
The Human Resources teams' role is to help deploy the Group's strategy by implementing efficient solutions that allow our employees to reach their full potential. They are also responsible for hiring and developing the talents that will contribute to Printemps' growth.
These teams are constantly striving to provide our customers with an exceptional shopping environment. They carry out renovation programs to improve our existing stores, and pilot the opening of our new stores.
