What does a Retail Scan Associate do?

We are hiring part-time Retail Scan Associates to perform in-store data collections at assigned local retailers every week for 52 weeks a year, including holiday weeks. Our store types include grocery, convenience, drug, pet, and mass merchandise stores. We work with major brand retailers like Walmart, Kroger, Target, Albertsons, and other national chains, as well as small independent retailers.

Retail Scan Associates use a downloadable app on their mobile phone to scan barcodes in numerous locations throughout each store.

While scanning bar codes each week, you will be asked to provide the quantity of about 45% of the products you scan.

What does a Retail Scan Associate's week look like?

You will report to your store within the described deadline.

You will complete Display Scanning on the entire store, which occurs every week and can take several hours to finish.

Our Clients frequently request more specific details about products in the main stocking locations. This additional work is referred to as Custom Projects. They occur almost every week and can add 1 to 2 hours of work for those weeks for each store.

Adhering to weekly deadlines is critical to the data we deliver to our clients. We ask for dependability and quality-driven action from our Retail Scan Associates in exchange for the exciting opportunity of independence in the workplace, along with some flexibility.
