Job description

We are seeking outgoing, friendly, and helpful team members to welcome and assist customers. Previous hardware experience is a plus but not a requirement as we provide extensive training.

At Ace Hardware, we’re independently owned and operated so helping our community is our number one priority.

Make an impact in the community by helping your neighbors with their projects while working in a fast-paced and fun environment. Our mission is to go the extra mile for our customers and build a team that has the same attitude!

Ace Hardware is an Equal Opportunity Employer and a Drug-Free environment. Ace goes beyond hardware: build a future, a purpose, and a community with us.

We are your local hardware store and we are a part of your community. Ace Hardware has over 5,000 stores around the world with the majority of those stores independently owned and operated by local entrepreneurs. These hard working men and women are part of the fabric of your community. They are small business owners who are local and loyal...just like it ought to be. While others have become large and impersonal, at Ace, we've remained small and very personal. That's why we say a visit to Ace, is like a visit to your neighbor.

Work/life balance:

This position is with a team that respects your life outside of work. We believe in earning your trust through clear communication. We schedule two weeks in advance, working with you so you can plan.

Learn and grow with us:

• Are you a hardware hero? Bring your knowledge and we’ll teach you something new.
• Have a helpful attitude? We’ll train you on hardware know-how that builds life skills.
• We train you from day one and the opportunities don’t stop there.

What to expect:

• You’ll work directly with customers welcoming them and helping them find everything necessary to complete their project in one trip.
• Like working in a fast-paced and fun environment? We are high energy so time will fly.
• You’ll be on your feet for most of your shift (6 to 8 hours).
• You must lift 25 to 30 lbs.

Pay, Benefits, and Perks:

• Paid time off
• Health Insurance or discount card for medical, dental, vision, and prescriptions
