Growth Beyond the Store.

We believe in developing leaders who care about people and community. You’ll gain hands-on experience in retail management, merchandising, and E-commerce with direct mentorship from ownership.

A Culture of Energy and Belonging.

From move-in weekend to graduation, every day brings new connections and excitement. We celebrate authenticity, teamwork, and the joy of RedHawk pride.

● Passion for customer service and team development

● Comfort with technology (POS systems, E-commerce tools, or inventory platforms like OpSuite)

● High school diploma or GED required; college experience preferred

Physical Requirements

● Ability to lift up to 40 lbs as needed

● Frequent standing, bending, and movement throughout shifts

● Ability to work flexible hours, including weekends, evenings and event days
