About The Position

As a part-time Merchandiser, you will independently service Hallmark departments in assigned retail stores, such as grocery, drug, department, and mass retailers. You will restock, organize, and monitor Hallmark products and displays, maintain inventory, and use a Hallmark-provided mobile device for merchandising activities, time reporting, communication, feedback, and surveys. You will interact professionally with store employees, management, and customers and may occasionally work with other companies’ products in stores you service.

The role also includes seasonal holiday support, which may involve additional workdays and extended hours before and after major holidays, and sometimes work on the holiday itself. You may assist teams with department resets, fixture installation, product relocation, and card-section resets; remodel assignments are typically communicated two weeks in advance and may occur in the evenings or on weekends. Merchandisers may also support teammates in other territories as needed.
