Job Description

Retail Odyssey, an Advantage Solutions company, is a dynamic and influential player in the retail services industry. This company operates with a vast network of over 65,000 dedicated teammates who serve more than 4,000 brands and retail customers across more than 40 countries worldwide. Retail Odyssey is committed to shaping the future of shopping experiences by connecting people with the products and experiences that enrich their lives. They provide an environment rich with opportunities, support, and enrichment to help employees grow their careers and succeed in an evolving retail landscape.

This particular role offers an exciting chance to be part of Retail Odyssey’s mission by providing in-store merchandising support to retailers. As a merchandising specialist, you play a crucial role in meeting shoppers’ needs through direct store support. Responsibilities include building engaging displays and end caps, resetting shelves with proper product rotation practices, and tracking inventory to ensure that both stores and suppliers optimize their sales opportunities. The role involves frequent traveling — potentially 50% or more of the time — which requires flexibility and readiness to visit different retail locations, sometimes involving overnight stays.

The position is designed for motivated individuals who enjoy being on the move, working independently as well as within a team, and thrive in a retail environment with a strong safety-first mindset. No prior experience is necessary, as full training and extensive team support are provided to equip new hires with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed. The hourly wage starts competitively at $16.90, with additional hours available upon request, offering a promising entry point with clear growth opportunities. Internal promotion is actively encouraged, meaning this role can serve as a stepping stone to advance within the company.

Retail Odyssey emphasizes employee well-being, offering comprehensive benefit plans that employees can customize to match the needs of their families. Benefits include medical, dental, vision, life insurance, supplemental voluntary plans, and wellness programs. Employees also enjoy access to discounts through Associate Perks, supporting a balanced and rewarding employee experience beyond just financial compensation. The role is well-suited for those who appreciate an active, customer-facing job where interpersonal skills and enthusiasm are critical.

Overall, this position represents a compelling opportunity to join a reputable global company that is dedicated to retail excellence and employee growth. If you enjoy customer interaction, have energy for physical tasks like moving, bending, standing, and lifting, and are ready to contribute to a vibrant team environment, Retail Odyssey invites you to apply and help shape the future of shopping.
