About Saince Pharmacy

Saince Pharmacy is building something a pharmacy in India has rarely been: a premium hub of health, wellness and fitness. We want customers to feel, the moment they step in, that they've walked into a considered, aspirational space that takes their wellbeing seriously.

We've built a strong retail foundation and a growing store network — and now we're ready to elevate the in-store experience to fully match the brand we're building. That's the opportunity this role exists to lead.

The role in one line

Own how every Saince Pharmacy store looks, feels, and sells — bringing our brand vision to life as a consistent, premium, revenue-generating in-store experience across the chain.

Why this role matters

This is where brand vision meets the physical shelf.

You will define what makes a Saince Pharmacy store distinctive — the reason a customer chooses us and remembers the experience. This is a founder-priority hire with direct access to, and a direct mandate from, the CEO, and the creative freedom to set the standard from the ground up.

What you'll own

- Set and implement the visual merchandising standard. Define store layouts, zoning, category adjacencies, product placement, signage, fixtures, visibility and customer journey — and convert the standards into practical planograms, guidelines and execution checklists that can be replicated across every store.
- Build the wellness & fitness destination. Create compelling product stories and category zones across wellness, nutrition, fitness, personal care and self-care. Ensure these categories are not simply stocked, but visually curated to become a key reason customers visit Saince Pharmacy.
- Own planograms and store-level execution. Develop,



implement and periodically revise planograms based on store size, category priorities, product availability, sales performance and customer behaviour. Monitor execution at store level and ensure deviations are corrected within defined timelines.
- Run the promotions and seasonal calendar. Plan and execute seasonal campaigns, wellness themes, product launches, promotional displays, cross-sell opportunities and category-led campaigns in coordination with procurement, category and marketing teams.
- Merchandise for both customer experience and commercial performance. Use sales, stock, category and margin information to improve product placement and visibility. The objective is not only to make stores look premium, but to ensure that merchandising contributes to sales, basket size and inventory movement.

What we are specifically looking for This is not a generic visual merchandising role . We are looking for someone who has already operated at a regional or multi-store level and can independently build systems as well as execute them on the ground.

You should ideally have

- 5+ years in visual merchandising, retail experience design, retail marketing, or store operations — ideally in premium retail, beauty/cosmetics, wellness, lifestyle, FMCG, organised pharmacy, or hospitality, where presentation is a competitive weapon.
- Proven hands-on experience in planogram creation, category zoning,



product placement and store layout planning .
- Strong experience in seasonal campaigns, promotional displays, window displays and in-store communication , with the ability to execute campaigns within tight timelines.
- Experience managing or coordinating VM teams and/or store-level teams , including training and maintaining execution standards across locations.
- Ability to understand sales, stock and inventory data and use it to make practical merchandising decisions.
- Strong understanding of how visual merchandising impacts sales, product visibility, customer journey and basket building .
- Willingness to travel extensively across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana and spend significant time physically visiting stores.
- Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to work directly with senior leadership, procurement, category, marketing and store operations.
- Multi-lingual ability is strongly preferred , particularly for effectively training and coaching store teams across the region.

A pharmacy background is welcome but not mandatory . We would rather have a strong multi-store visual merchandising skilled who understands retail execution, planograms, category presentation and customer experience and can learn pharmacy and wellness categories quickly.

Why join Saince

- A real mandate and creative freedom: you set the standard and build the experience.
- Direct line to the founder and the authority to make change stick.
- The chance to build a category-defining retail experience — a premium wellness pharmacy — on a strong and growing foundation.
- The opportunity to build the VM and retail-experience framework that can scale with the Saince Pharmacy network.
