Description:
MEC is expanding! Join us on this new adventure.
We’re currently looking for new staffers to join our team in our new location in Whitby.
MEC is more than a store. We’re a hub for the outdoor community, a leader in sustainability, and a place where you can be yourself. People come to us to try new things and plan new adventures – and as an Inventory Task Specialist, you’ll be there to help make it happen.
Members (what we call customers) visit us for gear and advice on hiking, camping, climbing, cycling, watersports, snowsports and travel. You’ll manage a team of people who support our members in planning everything from dream trips to weekend getaways, and first-timers to outdoor experts.
You’ll also have some pretty incredible coworkers who might just become future activity buddies; we asked staff what their favorite thing was about working for MEC, and the overwhelming answer was “the people.”
