About this Opportunity:
As a Marketing Department Manager (or in Whole Foods lingo, a Marketing Team Leader) you will lead all aspects of store marketing including but not limited to: managing the in-store marketing team, conducting strategic store and regional marketing, and organizing community relations outreach. In this role, you will develop and implement store marketing strategy based on the needs of the store. We are looking for someone can communicate clearly with cross-functional teams within the store and region, and also has the ability to leverage time and resources effectively.

About You:

You must have at least 2 years work experience in marketing, public relations and or event management.
You must have at least 2 years of leadership/supervisory experience.
We prefer that you have a bachelor's degree, but will consider experience in lieu of education.
Excellent customer service is a keystone for our success; so you must have a proven ability to build relationships, network, and delight and satisfy customers!
Let your internal “foodie” shine! We want you to love our food as much as we do, so a passion and knowledge of natural foods is desired.
Being a grocery store, we prefer if you have a background in the food industry and/or retail food preparation, but this is not a requirement.
As someone who will represent our brand within the community, prior knowledge of community is a plus. In addition, it is imperative that you are able to interact with media and maintain positive relationships with the business and vendor community.
This job is busy, so we need you to be organized, able to prioritize and handle multiple tasks effectively, able to follow through, pay attention to details, and have a vision for the “big picture”.
You're a marketer, so you know how important strong written and verbal communication skills are to succeed!
We will train you to use the Whole Foods Market systems, but we need you to have excellent computer skills and already know how to use MS Office Suite and Adobe.
Every department has a budget and a schedule; we need someone who knows how to get the “best bang for the buck” and has time management skills too!
Because leadership is so important in this role, we need someone who can train and inspire Team Members to excellence in all aspects of the marketing department.
Lastly, our retail environment is not your typical 9-5, and that's a good thing! But because of this, we'd like you to be available to work a flexible schedule to meet store schedule needs, and travel as needed.

Essential Job Functions:

Stand and walk for extended periods of time.
Bend and stoop to grasp objects and climb ladders. Bend and twist neck and waist, reach above and below shoulders and squat.
Bend and lift loads, not to exceed 50 pounds. Push and pull carts weighing up to 100 pounds.
Repetitive use of hands for grasping, pushing, pulling, and fine manipulation.
Environmental exposure to extreme temperatures (coolers, ovens, freezer, outdoors, etc.)
