A Team that Lives Diversity
What sets us apart is the diversity in our team. From young school graduates to seasoned colleagues nearing retirement, our team of 40 combines unique perspectives and backgrounds from a wide variety of countries into a vibrant mix. This makes us stronger, and our inclusive team culture ensures that every new member feels at home quickly. Our colorful and dynamic team tackles everything together—and it’s something both new team members and our customers notice right away.
Special Offers and Experiences
Our Leipzig store goes beyond the classic shopping departments. With a dedicated section for kids and our Home section, we cater to the diverse needs of our customers.
Conquering Challenges
Of course, working at the Zalando Outlet Leipzig comes with its challenges—and that’s exactly what makes the job so exciting. The one constant? No two days are ever the same. Fluctuating visitor numbers demand flexibility and multitasking skills, there are calm days as well as busy phases that bring up to 5,500 customers through our doors. It’s during these moments that our team spirit truly shines.
Celebrating Team Success
We love to celebrate our unique work atmosphere as a team. A standout moment? Our Christmas party at glow-in-the-dark mini-golf. Not only did we share a lot of laughs, but we also ended the evening with meaningful and honest conversations.
What Makes this Store Different
The hands-on mentality and warm team atmosphere make our store stand out. Every day is different, and that’s what makes working here so unique and exciting.
Whether you’re a customer or part of our team, our store offers an experience you won’t forget. We look forward to welcoming you—whether it’s for a visit or as the next member of our team!
