The role focuses on maintaining the cleanliness and organization of the store environment, with a particular emphasis on floor care which includes operating cleaning equipment such as scrubbers and buffers. The responsibilities extend to dust mopping, damp mopping, sweeping, vacuuming, dusting, and spot cleaning glass and windows to ensure that the customer experience is excellent from the moment they enter the store. This position also requires adherence to operational protocols, merchandise standards, and loss prevention measures to protect company assets and provide a safe environment for both customers and employees.
