Hallmark Merchandiser (part-time) Burlington, MA 01803

Hallmark Cards • Burlington, MA

10h • $17 - $19 • Onsite

About The Position

As a part-time Merchandiser, you will independently service Hallmark departments in grocery, drug, department, and mass-retail stores. You will showcase organization and time-management skills, build retailer relationships, and represent Hallmark while working with local store teams to optimize product placement and maintain inventory. You may also support seasonal resets and installations, and occasionally work with other companies’ products in stores you service.

The role has three main components: day-to-day merchandising, holiday support, and department resets. Using a Hallmark-provided mobile device, you will restock, organize, and monitor Hallmark products and displays, communicate with your supervisor, report time, provide feedback, and complete surveys. You are responsible for the Hallmark product display at assigned stores. Seasonal demand may bring additional workdays and extended hours before and after major holidays. Reset work may involve building or installing fixtures, moving card departments or products, and resetting card sections; remodel assignments are typically communicated two weeks in advance. As part of Hallmark’s field organization, you may also support other merchandisers in their territories.

This is a variable-schedule, part-time position averaging 10–14 hours per week. The starting rate is $17–$19 per hour, depending on skills and experience. Paid training includes live, hands-on instruction and virtual classroom training. Eligible employees receive annual pay increases. Availability before and after major holidays, including possible weekend and holiday work, and availability for season changeovers, extended services, installations, and inventory support are required.

The job is physically demanding and takes place on retail selling floors and in back stockrooms. It involves regularly pushing, pulling, lifting, and carrying cartons, merchandise, and display fixtures weighing up to 30 pounds, and occasionally up to 50 pounds, as well as kneeling, squatting, walking, standing, and potentially climbing stairs and step ladders.
