Barrie, Canada MEC Full time
We’re currently looking for Department Manager to join our MEC Family

MEC is more than a store. We’re a hub for the outdoor community, a leader in sustainability, and a place where you can be yourself. People come to us to try new things and plan new adventures – and as a Department Manager, you’ll be there to lead our teams to make it happen.

Members (what we call customers) visit us for gear and advice on hiking, camping, climbing, cycling, watersports, snowsports, and travel. You’ll manage a team of people who support our members in planning everything from dream trips to weekend getaways, and first-timers to outdoor experts.

The Opportunity

As a Department Manager, you’ll make MEC a great place to visit and work at. You’ll be a major part of managing store operations, supporting MEC’s strategic direction, and delivering on business objectives that include exceptional member satisfaction levels. You’ll play a key role in building a high-performing crew of staffers and an engaging culture. If you love the outdoors, leading teams, and connecting with people, this is the role for you.

What a Day In The Life Looks Like
  1. You actively promote the principles, culture, vision, and purpose of MEC to all store staffers.
  2. Ensure store operations are efficient, consistent, and deliver an awesome member experience.
  3. Identify store hiring needs, manage recruitment and selection, and stick to budgets for payroll expenditures.
  4. You have regular check-ins with all store staff to keep communication open and to gather feedback on staff satisfaction. You take actions to foster a positive workplace culture that’s in line with MEC values.
  5. The store’s visual presentation is in tip-top shape, and that it helps deliver an outstanding experience for everyone who steps inside.
  6. Create a healthy, safe work environment for staffers and people in our store.
  7. You’ll be constantly learning about new products, technology, and features.
  8. Above all, you help more people in Canada get active outside, whether that means planning for a family camping trip or a massive backcountry expedition.

You Might Be Who We’re Looking For If
  1. Enjoy working with a diverse, inclusive, hands-on, collaborative team.
  2. At least one year of experience in a similar role in a retail setting.
  3. Passionate about the outdoors and have a “can do” attitude.
  4. Your skill set includes personal integrity and awareness, customer focus, initiative and character, teamwork, and the ability to develop yourself and others.
  5. Good-natured, outgoing, welcoming vibe and genuinely like helping people.
  6. Customer service is not just your skill, it’s your mindset. You’ll go out of your way to provide an excellent member experience.
  7. You can lift 50 lb. and walk 10,000 steps per day.
  8. Multi-tasking is your middle name. You’re well organized when lots is on the go.
  9. You have demonstrated skills in handling ambiguity, effective communication, managing conflict, and driving results in a retail setting.
  10. You’re curious about gear and want to learn more – we’ll provide training to build your skills.

What Do We Offer
  1. More than just a job. We love what we do, and we offer to share our passion for the outdoors.
  2. Competitive salary and bonus program.
  3. Staff discount and pro deals (amazing deals straight from vendors).
  4. Equipment demonstration program – it’s like a free gear rental program for staffers.
  5. The chance to spend time with your peers through field experience programs, and to live our purpose to get active outside.
  6. Lots of training and product knowledge.
  7. Competitive benefit package including:
  8. Health benefits (medical and dental), life insurance.
  9. Employee matching group Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP).
  10. Paid sick days.
  11. Tuition reimbursement program to expand your knowledge and skills.
  12. Paid volunteerism.
  13. Growth opportunities.
  14. An amazing, collaborative team – people are what make MEC an incredible place to work.
