Visual Retail Key Holder - Part Time (Backcountry Outlet)

Backcountry Outlet is a new retail division built on a simple idea: expert gear guidance paired with accessible pricing. It’s a place where seasoned skiers, first-time mountain bikers, and families alike can confidently gear up for what’s next. Our stores are powered by Gearheads who live the lifestyle—skiing, riding, hiking, and climbing—and bring that credibility to every customer interaction. This isn’t transactional retail; it’s about connecting people to the right gear, providing expert ski, snowboard, and bike services, and creating a reason to come back. 

The ideal candidate should have a passion for outdoor activities and possess excellent communication and interpersonal skills.  

We are seeking a Visual Retail Key Holder to join our team. The Key Holder will be responsible for managing the store during scheduled shifts, opening and closing the store, handling cash and credit card transactions, managing inventory, and providing excellent customer service to our valued customers. In addition, this role plays a key part in maintaining visual merchandising standards to ensure the store environment reflects Backcountry’s brand and creates an engaging shopping experience. 

This role is challenging – above and beyond the day-to-day responsibilities, you’ll have a big role within a fast-paced team.  

This position will report to the Retail Store Manager.
