Job Description

TJX Companies is a leading Fortune 100 off-price retailer operating across the globe with multiple well-known brands such as TJ Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods, Homesense, Sierra, Winners, and TK Maxx. The company operates through four global Home Offices, Distribution Centers, and Retail Stores, providing immense opportunities for career growth, learning, and achievement. TJX embraces diversity, fosters collaboration, and prioritizes employee development, maintaining a vibrant team culture. The organization is committed to creating an inclusive, respectful work environment where everyone can thrive and contribute meaningfully, making it an excellent employer in the retail sector.

The role available at the HomeGoods Store in Charlotte, NC, focuses on maintaining a clean and organized store environment with an emphasis on floor care. This position involves operating cleaning equipment such as scrubbers and buffers, dust mopping, damp mopping, sweeping, vacuuming, dusting, and spot cleaning of glass and windows. The role requires adherence to operational, merchandise, and loss prevention standards. The employee will be cross-trained to support multiple areas within the store to meet business needs effectively. Key responsibilities include upholding the company’s customer experience standards through positive interaction with both internal team members and external customers.

This position encourages a positive store culture embodying honesty, integrity, and respect, while maintaining cleanliness standards across sales floors, backrooms, associate lounges, and restrooms. The role requires compliance with all health and safety policies, stock refilling in key areas, and support for front-end operations as needed. The employee will participate in store recovery activities, merchandising, and signage maintenance while ensuring all operational and shrink control policies are followed.

Ideal candidates must exhibit excellent customer service, strong organizational skills, and physical stamina to manage cleaning tasks along with operating floor care machines. Strong communication is essential, both verbal and written, along with the ability to handle unexpected situations and multi-task efficiently. The job also involves the capability to lift heavy objects, with accommodations available if needed. Retail experience, especially customer-facing roles, is favorable but not mandatory.

TJX Companies offers a comprehensive benefits package including associate discounts, employee assistance programs, smoking cessation support, bereavement benefits, 401(k) opportunities, child care and cell phone discounts, pet and legal insurance, credit union memberships, and referral bonuses. For those meeting service requirements, additional benefits include medical, dental, and vision plans, health spending accounts, life and disability insurance, paid parental leave, paid holidays, vacation, and sick leave. Additional perks like auto and home insurance discounts, scholarship programs, and adoption assistance demonstrate the company’s commitment to supporting its workforce.
