Coleman Merchandising Rep $23/hr

Coleman Merchandising Rep

Are you familiar with a retail environment and looking for supplemental income? If so, the Coleman Brand Rep role with ThirdChannel may be a good fit for you!

JOB BRIEF: The primary objective of this visit is to support the Coleman brand by performing merchandising tasks, facilitating product knowledge information for both retail associates and customers, as well as collecting data from retail locations to provide the brand with a better understanding of their positioning within retailers. Starting with the first portable gas powered lantern, to becoming the industry powerhouse we know today, Coleman has been the long-standing leader of the outdoor gear industry. After 120 years, Coleman gear is everywhere you are: on the trail, by the lake, at a tailgate, or in the middle of a music festival. Always around a place where there are friends, coolers, and campfires. So, grab a tent, fire up a grill, and pull up a chair. The outside is calling. Answer it.

RESPONSIBILITIES AND DUTIES:

• Create and commit to a monthly cadence of retail store visits in your market
• Merchandise displays that are set according to planograms
• Build meaningful relationships with store teams
• Educate and engage store teams and consumers on the features and benefits of Coleman Pro products
• Submit store visit reports, including taking before and after photos and writing summaries, using the ThirdChannel technology on a smart device

SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS:

• A passion for outdoor adventuring with curiosity to learn all about Coleman (if you aren't a fan already!)
• Previous merchandising experience, preferably in a retail environment, with a strong eye for detail
• Communication and building rapport with store staff are key - Brand Rep must be articulate and friendly
• Ability to problem solve and manage time autonomously

JOB DETAILS:

• Immediate start date upon completion of onboarding process
• Brand Reps receive two hours of paid onboarding prior to a first in-store visit
• A smart device with internet access is required (iOS 15.0 or above, Android phones on version 10.0 or above)

This 1099 contract position provides excellent supplemental income for experienced retail merchandisers. Our competitive pay starts at $23/hour (based on your market and relevant experience). In addition to your hourly rate, your travel is compensated per visit (not per mile). We are hiring now and we move fast! Upon offer acceptance, you will complete a 2-hour, paid onboarding and be able to schedule work immediately following. You'll also have an opportunity to gain product knowledge and build merchandising skills through ongoing brand education moving forward.
