Associate, Sales B2B

The North Face is currently looking for an outstanding Associate, Sales B2B to join our Business Development and B2B Sales team based in Stabio, Switzerland.

The North Face is the premier exploration company in the world. We spark curiosity. We dare to disrupt. We create communities. And we lead with integrity. We are a community of explorers and are constantly looking for new ideas, places and people to connect with. The North Face is a subsidiary of VF, the world's largest apparel and footwear company.

Let's Talk about the Role

As Associate, Sales B2B, you will keep The North Face's B2B digital commerce engine running at full speed. Reporting to the Manager, Sales Enablement, you will own the day-to-day operation of our B2B trading portal and selling tools: seasonal configuration, assortment set-up, master data and product content. The platforms serve our pan-European self-service accounts and the entire TNF EMEA wholesale sales force, so your work directly drives how quickly and accurately customers and sales reps can order. This is a hands-on role at the intersection of commercial, product and technology, where precision and ownership turn into revenue.

How You Will Make a Difference

• Own the seasonal configuration of the B2B portal and selling tools, ensuring every season goes live accurately and on time for sell-in.

• Manage SAP settings supporting ordering intake platforms, including assortment rules, inclusion lists, SMUs, collaborations and special programmes.

• Run and operate selling tools and configurations activities: extension delivery, filters, draft prices, additional attributes and B2B settings.

• Create and maintain sales agents, teams and user access across all selling platforms.

• Build and maintain seasonal workbooks that support pre-book and in-season selling.

• Manage operational CMS settings on the portal, including filters, headers and landing page uploads, in line with commercial campaigns.

• Gather, normalise and translate product information, and own master data quality across B2B platforms.

• Align and monitor product assets (images, content) so that every product is complete and order ready.

• Support reorder management, newsletters and stock analysis in alignment with brand needs.

• Document platform needs and prepare new requirement presentations for Digital Technology Team, contributing to continuous improvement and automation.

Skills for Success

• 1-3 years of experience in eCommerce operations, B2B platforms or sales operations, ideally in apparel, footwear or consumer goods.

• Strong attention to detail and a sense of ownership: you treat data accuracy as a commercial result.

• Advanced Excel skills; experience with SAP and with digital tools, PIM, DAM or CMS platforms is a strong plus.

• Ability to manage seasonal deadlines and multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

• Curiosity for digital tools, automation and AI, with a problem-solving mindset.

• Clear communicator, able to work with Sales, Merchandising, Marketing and Digital Technology.

• Understanding of the wholesale calendar and of how customers use B2B ordering tools.

• Fluency in English; Italian, German, French or Spanish is a plus.
