Inspired by the great outdoors, we create timeless, sustainable apparel and leather goods designed for comfort and everyday adventure. At Roots, we believe in fostering a culture of inclusivity, creativity, and teamwork – where every team member plays a role in shaping our brand’s legacy. If you bring passion to everything you do, lead with integrity, and believe in the power of collaboration to drive growth, we’d love to have you on our journey!

Team Lead

At Roots, our Team Leads are brand ambassadors who set the tone on the sales floor every shift.

We are looking for individuals who act with integrity, take initiative, build trust, and are proud to support their team, community, and the Roots brand.

What You'll Do

Lead by example in customer service, selling behaviours, and store standards to create an exceptional experience for every customer.
Provide on-the-floor coaching, support, and positive feedback throughout the shift to help team members build confidence and skills.

Identify issues and opportunities on the sales floor, take action to address them, and share ideas with the leadership team to improve execution.
Recognize and celebrate team successes and positive behaviours.
Partner with store management to execute action plans and share feedback on individual and team performance.
Support store operations in the absence of management, including opening and closing procedures, POS, daily banking, reporting, and inventory duties.
Uphold all company policies, procedures, and guidelines.

What Makes You Successful

Initiative
- Leads by example in delivering great customer experiences, supporting sales, and coaching team members on the floor.
- Anticipates business needs, identifies opportunities, and takes action without waiting for direction.
Collaboration
- Coordinates team efforts to support daily priorities and store goals, knowing success is measured by the team, not the individual.
- Builds trust and creates an environment where everyone can succeed.
Leading with Purpose

- Connects daily execution to sales, customer service, and operational goals, and influences results through others.

What You Bring

Fairness, accountability, and consistency in your daily actions.
Passion for the customer experience and the Roots brand, and the ability to inspire that enthusiasm in others.
A coaching mindset: you help others grow while continuing to develop yourself.
Resilience and a competitive spirit, staying calm and solutions-focused during busy periods and customer concerns.
Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
Experience with POS, cash handling, and opening and closing procedures is an asset.

Role Requirements
