A Day in the Life of an Assistant Manager

Each day as a Visual Merchandiser will be dynamic and unique. A typical day starts with scoping out the warehouse to see if there have been any new products received that need to be put out.

You will then do a walk through of the store and see if there are any areas that need improving, especially areas with lots of missing products.

From there, you’ll determine your priority tasks and store areas to start with and begin planning to solve any identified needs or issues.

Throughout the day you will interact with guests and help answer any questions they may have. At the end of the day, you will communicate with the managers on any major changes to a section and let them know if there are new products to watch out for.
