• Inventory Management: Monitor stock levels, assist with inventory counts, and maintain accurate records.
• Visual Merchandising: Set up and maintain visually appealing product displays, ensuring proper pricing, labeling, and adherence to the visual checklist.
• Store Cleanliness and Safety: Maintain a clean, organized, and safe front and back store environment for employees and customers, including windows, floors, cash desk, and fixtures.
