• Build strong relationships with Area Managers and People Partners to escalate issues, seek advice, and receive coaching.
• If the store has a Post Office Local, your duties will include managing daily operations of the Post Office, which requires passing a financial and criminal background check. Failure to pass these checks will result in withdrawal of the job offer.
