**The WHY**

**Why MEC?**

MEC is more than a store, and we’re more than a place to buy hats and backpacks. We’re physical and digital hubs for the outdoor community. People connect here, through our stores, online channels, over the phone, or through one of our leading events, clinics or services.

**Why YOU?**

If you like working with an inclusive, hands-on, collaborative team that connects people with quality products to encourage active outdoor lives, then this is the team for you. MEC is an awesome place for people who are always learning and trying new things like bouldering, yoga, or trail running

You are good natured and have a welcoming vibe. You’re outgoing and genuinely like helping people. You’re stoked about being active outside.

You have availability to work weekends and evenings. You have 5 to 7 years of management experience in a busy, high-volume retail or service environment. You have demonstrated skills in employee lifecycle, planning, project management, change management, budgeting and process improvement in a retail setting.

**The HOW**

You provide coaching and mentorship to MEC teams to ensure we’re aligned, reaching toward the same goals. You support and empower staff to enable them to deliver great member service.

You ensure the shifts you oversee hit their goals and hold the team accountable. You help make MEC a good neighbor. You are willing to fill-in at other locations when called upon. You ensure there’s good communication between you, the team members, and the Store Manager to ensure consistent store conditions and staff morale. You strategize and embody the missions and vision of our business.
- **_Praise and Care:_** **You establish a culture of feedback within your store, where team members thrive. You genuinely care for the wellbeing of your staff, not just their work performance.
