Job description

About the Brand:

ATHLETIFREAK was born the way most meaningful things are - out of necessity.

Founded in 2021 in Basking Ridge, New Jersey by husband-and-wife duo Mo & Noor, the brand was built from lives constantly in motion. We weren't chasing a trend - we were creating what we couldn't find: elevated performance pieces that move seamlessly through every part of the day without asking you to blend in.

To us, movement is more than physical. It's a mindset - the discipline to keep showing up, putting in the work, and choosing progress when no one's watching. That's why every piece is designed with an uncompromising focus on fabric, fit, and function, built for real life, not highlight reels.

DRIVEN BY PURPOSE. DESIGNED FOR THOSE WHO GIVE AF.

About the Role

We are committed to finding exceptional talent to represent our boutique in Bridgewater, New Jersey. We are seeking dynamic Part-Time Sales Associates who are passionate about delivering outstanding in-store experiences, driving customer satisfaction, and fostering meaningful brand connections.

The ideal candidate excels at creating positive, lasting customer interactions while building brand loyalty. They thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment, adeptly balancing multiple priorities and consistently putting the customer first. Key responsibilities include supporting sales initiatives, enhancing team and customer engagement, maintaining visual and operational standards, and contributing to the overall success of the store. This role may include opening and closing responsibilities and the potential for keyholder duties.

As part of the Leap platform, this individual will have the unique opportunity to support other brands in our portfolio through new store openings, activations, and coverage needs. Familiarity with emerging retail technologies such as Shopify, Endear, Slack, and Google Workspace is a strong advantage.

Hourly Pay Range: $18 - $22
Compensation will be determined based on the candidate's experience, skills, competencies, and qualifications.
