Literal translation
彼女は出世するために彼女の容姿を利用する

女の武器(woman's weapon) is usable phrase for the situation.But it doesn't always mean looks.Sometimes it means woman's tears,being cute,acting like a little girl,etc.
彼女は出世するために女の武器を使う

You can use のし上がる instead of 出世する.
It indicates that she use abrasive tactics without hesitation.
