This role involves relationship building both independently and collaboratively with the Pro Desk staff, creating a welcoming environment for local professionals. Your responsibilities include greeting every contractor, understanding their business and project needs, and assisting them efficiently with paint and sundry products. You will manage customer orders, including tinting and mixing paint, ensuring that pros are equipped to get back to work quickly. This position requires an adaptable schedule with hours that may include weekends, holidays, and evenings to align with peak customer traffic times.
