The Sales Floor Department Supervisor leads and enables a team of associates to deliver a strong customer experience. The role includes coaching and training associates, delegating work, following up on daily tasks, managing performance, and ensuring adequate department coverage. Supervisors support customer-facing sales and service, as well as non-customer-facing work such as down stocking, inventory management, and area recovery. They also promote store safety by conducting safety walks, reporting hazards, and reinforcing safety procedures and lifting techniques. The supervisor works with leaders to identify approaches that support sales and service objectives, then communicates effective practices to the team in a way that encourages customer-focused behavior and goal attainment. They may supervise associates in other departments as needed, which requires broad product knowledge and the ability to engage associates and customers across departments. The role also involves keeping management informed of concerns, issues, praise, and team morale. The supervisor may occasionally open or close the store or serve as manager-on-duty. Regular travel is not required, although occasional travel to meetings, training, or neighboring stores may be needed.
