AE - Merchandise Leader (Part-Time)
American Eagle Outfitters Inc., Novi, Michigan, United States, 48377
Job Overview
As the Merchandise Leader, you are the Merchandising Team Leader’s right hand, ensuring your store is always rocking AEO Brand Visual Standards. Your expertise lies in executing effective floorsets, marketing and merchandising updates, and keeping the store "guests ready" through efficient replenishment. You have a keen attention to detail, a passion for visual standards, and a love of teamwork. Most importantly, you represent our company values and bring your real self to work every day.
Your Responsibilities
You have a passion for merchandising: you support driving an outstanding guest experience in partnership with the Merchandising Team Leader by ensuring your store represents AEO Brand Standards.
Floorsets are your "thing"! You drive killer floorset execution by training and coaching the floorset team, setting clear productivity goals, and ensuring all areas of the store meet floorset standards—from uppers and bustforms to tables and wardrobers.
You’re a merchandising innovator: you own day‑to‑day merchandising, sell‑through adjustments and replenishment. You have a keen eye for merchandising opportunities and are ready to game‑plan with leadership and take action.
You have a "teamwork" mentality: you support the Merchandising Team Leader in ensuring the team understands how to maintain AEO Brand Standards through merchandising, adjustments and replenishment so the store is always looking fresh.
You’re a people person: you prioritize the guest experience and champion a culture of recognition, celebrating wins with the team.
Integrity is your middle name: you ensure store safety standards are maintained on the sales floor and in the stockroom. You commit to shrink‑reduction strategies and adhere to AEO policies and procedures.
You’d Be Great For This Role
You love AE and Aerie products.
You love organization, have attention to detail, and excel at priority‑setting and time management.
You have flexible availability—you’re there to move products early in the morning, late in the evening, and on weekends.
You have strong retail merchandising and visual skills and a history of retail work; practice makes perfect.
Our Associates Love AEO
