Shepherd’s Fashions is looking for an experienced Visual Merchandiser to help maintain and continually elevate the presentation of our Ottawa Train Yards store.

For this position, previous visual merchandising experience is essential.

We’re looking for someone who already understands the fundamentals of solid retail merchandising. This is a hands-on role. You won't just be designing displays. You'll be moving fixtures, carrying product, climbing ladders, dressing mannequins, reorganizing racks, steaming clothing, tidying and continually maintaining the store.

Your responsibilities will include:

- Creating and maintaining visual merchandising throughout the store
- Refreshing areas regularly so the store continues to feel current
- Moving racks, fixtures, mannequins, boxes and merchandise
- Steaming, hanging, folding and preparing merchandise for display
- Tidying and maintaining the overall presentation of the store

This isn't a role where you merchandise an area and walk away. Maintenance is part of merchandising.

We're Looking for Experience

We're looking for someone who has previously worked in visual merchandising and understands how to create a strong retail environment.

However, practical retail merchandising experience is most important to us. We want someone who can walk into a space, understand what isn't working and know how to improve it.

This Is a Physical Job

You will spend your shift on your feet and may regularly be:





- Lifting and carrying boxes and merchandise
- Moving racks and fixtures
- Moving and dressing mannequins
- Climbing ladders or step stools
- Reaching, bending and crouching
- Steaming clothing
- Unpacking merchandise

The Person We're Looking For

Beyond merchandising talent, we need someone who is:

- Experienced and confident in visual merchandising
- Creative but commercially minded
- Extremely organized
- Detail-oriented
- Efficient and productive
- Self-directed
- Comfortable taking direction and changing priorities
- Dependable and punctual
- Easy to work with
- Comfortable working independently
- Willing to do the less glamorous work that keeps a store looking beautiful
- Someone who sees what needs to be done and does it

Schedule

This is a part-time position with a flexible schedule.

Retail merchandising doesn't always happen between 9 and 5. Depending on what is happening in the store, shifts may include:

- Weekdays
- Weekends
- Early mornings
- Evenings
- Occasional work before or after regular store hours

Shepherd’s Fashions is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to creating an inclusive workplace and welcome applications from all qualified candidates.

Pay: From $17.95 per hour

Expected hours: 15.0 – 30.0 per week

Benefits:

- Casual dress
- Flexible schedule
- On-site parking
- Store discount

Work Location: In person
