12h • $18 - $19 • Onsite

About The Position

As a part-time Merchandiser, you work independently in the Hallmark departments of assigned retail stores, showcasing organization and time-management skills, building retailer relationships, and representing Hallmark. You collaborate with local store teams to optimize product placement and maintain inventory, and may support seasonal resets and installations or, on occasion, work with other companies’ products in stores you service.

The role includes day-to-day restocking, organizing, and monitoring Hallmark product displays and inventory, using a Hallmark-provided mobile device for work tasks, time reporting, communication, feedback, and surveys. You are responsible for the entire Hallmark product display at your assigned stores and interact professionally with store employees, management, and customers. Seasonal demand may bring additional workdays and extended hours around major holidays. The position may also involve fixture installation, department relocations, and card-section resets, sometimes during evenings or weekends. Merchandisers may support coworkers in other territories as needed.

This is a physically demanding role involving work on sales floors and in back stockrooms. You must frequently push, pull, lift, and carry items up to 30 pounds and occasionally up to 50 pounds, as well as kneel, squat, walk, and stand during the workday. Climbing stairs and step ladders may also be required. The position averages 10–12 hours per week on a variable work-week schedule. Availability before and after major holidays, potentially including weekends, and to support seasonal changeovers, extended services, installations, and inventory work is required.
