(RMS) is a nationally recognized merchandising company dedicated to providing exceptional retail merchandising solutions across a wide variety of retail environments. With a steadfast commitment to excellence, RMS partners with numerous renowned retailers, offering customized in-store services that enhance product visibility, optimize shelf space, and improve overall customer shopping experiences. The company prides itself on its flexibility, innovation, and support for its workforce, empowering employees with the freedom to set their own schedules and work in dynamic retail settings close to home.

RMS is currently seeking a Part-Time Retail Merchandising Representative to join their team. This unique role is ideal for individuals who have a passion for retail but prefer a flexible work arrangement. As a Merchandising Representative, you will be responsible for servicing retail stores within a 15-mile radius of your home, attending to the needs of the stores on a weekly, bi-weekly, or one-time basis depending on scheduling and demand. The position averages between 3 to 8 hours per week but varies seasonally, offering a dynamic and adaptable workload.

Compensation starts at $13.25 per hour during both in-store and online training. Additionally, employees who train or work temporarily in stores outside their regular assigned locations may receive mileage reimbursement at $0.45 per mile and/or drive time paid at $10 per hour or the applicable minimum wage in their area, whichever is higher. RMS emphasizes a supportive work environment where employees can thrive by advancing through tenure-based pay increases and comprehensive benefits packages.

In this role, Merchandising Representatives engage directly with retail store personnel to complete a variety of merchandising activities, including stocking and organizing products on the sales floor, conducting audits to ensure correct product placement, placing product signage, collecting data, setting up displays, and maintaining planograms. Representatives are expected to utilize RMS's proprietary Web Portal and Mobile App for reporting all completed projects, uploading photos, and managing communications efficiently.

The role demands physical activity such as lifting items up to 50 pounds occasionally, standing and walking for extended periods, as well as the need for clear visual acuity and manual dexterity. Flexibility and a proactive approach to problem-solving are crucial, as representatives must self-manage their workflow and schedules to meet deadlines while maintaining high standards of professionalism and cooperative relationships with store personnel and RMS colleagues.

RMS provides employees with numerous benefits including 401(k) plans with company matching, preventative medical, dental, and vision insurance, long-term disability options, various accident and critical illness insurance products, and voluntary life insurance. Additional perks include access to employee discount programs, DailyPay which allows early pay access, and reimbursement for mobile device use necessary for job functions.

This part-time opportunity is perfect for individuals seeking to balance work and personal life with the ability to control their weekly schedules. Candidates must possess a basic understanding of retail and merchandising operations, have reliable transportation, internet access with printing capabilities, and a smart device compatible with the RMS app for reporting and communication needs. Strong communication skills and the ability to follow instructions are essential.

Join RMS as a Retail Merchandising Representative and enjoy the unique benefits of flexible scheduling, meaningful retail work, and the backing of a progressive company that values its employees and their work-life balance.
