Our data-driven insights and complete line of impulse products enable inspired shopping experiences and increased sales for our retail partners.

Our merchandisers are the heart and soul of Jacent. They are on the front lines in their own communities, placing the right products, building displays, and working directly with store personnel.

We are looking for individuals who align with our culture pillars: We Always Play Offense, We Are Solutions Oriented, We Deliver Legendary Service, We Act with Integrity and Courage, and We Are Stronger Together.

About the Role

As a Merchandiser, you will be a self-starter and quick learner who enjoys working both independently and in a team setting. You will be comfortable in changing environments and serve as a strong communicator, building relationships with business partners and in-store management.

In this role, you will cultivate relationships with store management while executing merchandising resets, building retail displays, and merchandising impulse items on clip strips and J-hooks. You will also be responsible for implementing plan-o-grams to maximize sales. This position requires the ability to meet specific physical requirements, including standing and walking for 3-8 hours, lifting up to 50 lbs, and performing crouching, bending, twisting, and repetitive hand movements.

A Day in the Life

You will work daytime hours with a predictable schedule, typically 16-22 hours per week. Your day involves traveling between stores, where you will be paid for travel time and mileage. You will engage with store personnel to ensure displays are built correctly and products are placed strategically.
