Job Description

This Assistant – DC role sits within a distribution center operated by Landmark Group, one of the GCC’s largest omnichannel retail and hospitality groups, home to more than 25 own-built brands and a UAE-based retail network of over 2,200 stores. A retail network of that scale depends entirely on distribution centers running smoothly behind the scenes, and this role supports exactly that.

Day to day, this likely means supporting receiving, sorting, and dispatch of merchandise within the distribution center, maintaining accurate stock and inventory records, helping prepare shipments for Landmark Group’s various retail brands, and keeping the DC’s daily workflow organized, especially during high-volume periods tied to seasonal retail demand. Because Landmark Group’s brands span fashion, home, and leisure categories, the merchandise flowing through this distribution center is genuinely varied, which keeps the day-to-day work from becoming repetitive in a narrow way.

This is a practical, hands-on operational role, well suited to someone who is organized, reliable, and comfortable with the physical and process-driven nature of distribution center work.

This suits someone looking to build a foundation in retail logistics and distribution operations within one of the region’s largest retail groups.

Impact of the Job

Landmark Group's retail brands depend on their distribution centers to get the right merchandise to the right stores at the right time, and any inefficiency at this level - a misplaced shipment, an inventory error, a slow dispatch during a seasonal peak - ripples out into stock-outs or delays that customers experience directly on the shop floor. This role's accuracy and reliability at the distribution center level is a direct contributor to how well Landmark Group's more than 2,200 UAE retail stores stay stocked and ready for customers across its many brands. Because the group operates across such a wide range of retail categories, a well-run distribution center also means the business can respond flexibly to demand shifts between brands without the logistics layer becoming a bottleneck. Consistent, careful work in this role protects both customer experience at the store level and the operational efficiency the group depends on to run a retail network at this scale.

Job Seeker Benefit

Distribution center experience within one of the GCC's largest retail groups offers genuinely broad exposure, since Landmark Group's portfolio spans fashion, home, and leisure brands moving through the same operational network - a useful foundation for understanding retail logistics more broadly rather than just one narrow product category. This role builds core warehouse and inventory skills - accuracy, organization, and the ability to work efficiently under seasonal demand pressure - that transfer well across retail, e-commerce, and broader logistics operations. Landmark Group's scale and brand diversity also create genuine internal mobility for reliable performers, with realistic pathways from distribution center support roles into inventory control, warehouse supervisory, or broader retail operations roles over time. For someone building a career in retail logistics or distribution operations, this role offers a solid, practical starting point within a well-established and growing regional group. Just as importantly, it builds the day-to-day professional habits - clear communication, follow-through, and comfort being accountable for a defined piece of the business - that hiring managers look for regardless of which direction a career ends up taking next. Those habits travel well beyond this specific employer, which is part of why experience like this tends to open more doors than it closes, even for someone who isn't yet sure exactly which direction they want their career to take.
