Visual Merchandiser – Full Time, Monday – Friday (Occasional Weekends)

Does this sound like you? If so, apply today!

When it comes to gardening, you really know your stuff. You have experience working in the gardening industry; better yet you have retail garden center experience. You have a solid feel for our Houston climate and are very comfortable making good plant recommendations. Hot weather? Not a problem for you because you prefer to be outdoors. Rain? No problem either, because you won’t melt. Dirt under your fingernails? Always.

You have a special talent for putting together beautiful and attractive displays that sell while effectively and efficiently managing day-to-day Customer Service. You can’t wait to help develop and unify Buchanan’s visual style and personality. You know how important it is to help customers be successful and you’re focused on teaching them the best way to use what they buy. If they’re not successful the first time around, you’ll be there to get them back on track with a smile!

You also know that in order to make great sales, plants and products need to look their best. So between customers, you have no problem watering, unloading racks or cleaning what needs to be cleaned. As our visual merchandiser, you’ll pay particular attention to all of our mixed planters and blooming plants. Because you’re self-motivated, you don’t need someone checking up on you to make sure you’re always being productive. You’re not afraid to admit what you don’t know or ask for help from other staff. You take pride in your work and have a passion for what you do. That passion might have led you to already complete a TCNP/TCLP certification. If so, that’s great! If it’s still on your to-do list, we’d love to help you complete it. You’re looking for full time work and are available on occasional weekends.

Are you a passionate gardener, but perhaps don’t have official industry experience? Tell us your story and we’ll happily consider your application!

Cashier Job Description

You’re the kind of person that loves engaging with other people: You’re never shy about talking to strangers. Smiling just comes natural to you! You always want to make a great impression on customers and make sure they feel welcome and taken care of. Manners are important to you both in face-to-face encounters and on the phone. In fact, juggling phone calls and the customer standing in front of you in a professional manner is a skill you’ve mastered. You’re never too busy to make sure a customer gets exactly what they need.

You’re computer savvy and have two years of register experience. Handling cash, making calculations and properly counting back change is no problem for you. You like keeping things tidy and will make sure that between customers you keep the register areas tidy and stocked with cashier supplies. Plus, you’re independently motivated: You don’t need someone reminding you about your daily duties.

You might have some gardening experience…but if you don’t then you at least have an interest in learning. You’re not afraid to be honest when you don’t know the answer and have no problem linking the customer up with sales staff that can help. You’re looking for a part time or full time job and are available to work weekends. Heat and rain don’t bother you because you prefer being outdoors.

Are you inexperienced on the register but have a passion for wanting to work at an independent garden center?  Tell us your story and we’ll happily consider your application!
