Job Title : Retail Community Ambassador
Location : Marc Nolan - Chicago Flagship (West Loop) Position : Part / Full-Time
Who We Are : The Marc Nolan Social Club
Welcome to Marc Nolan—a shoe brand, a social club, and a way of life that celebrates charm, humor, and unexpected flair. We care less about perfection and more about effortless style.
We’re rooted in the classic codes of American prep but reimagine them with a wink and a modern twist. We’re not about chasing trends; we’re about creating pieces that feel as familiar as an old friend but as exciting as a new adventure. Each pair carries a hint of history, a nod to nostalgia, and a whole lot of contemporary charm.
The Role
We're not just looking for a salesperson. We're looking for a Community Ambassador —the official host of our West Loop "social club."
You're the person who gets it. You embody our "modern prep with humor and flair." You have that effortless style, that natural charm, and that "wink" our brand is built on. You're less about perfection and more about having fun with fashion.
This hybrid role is for a natural networker who will act as the face of our brand in Chicago. Your primary mission is to connect with other style-conscious individuals who share our spirit, bringing them into the Marc Nolan social club as new customers and event attendees.
What You'll Do
- Host the Social Club : Embody our "modern prep with humor and flair" aesthetic. You'll be a key brand representative, showcasing how to mix, match, and create a look that's uniquely your own.
- Community Networking : Proactively network to build genuine relationships with individuals, groups, and businesses that align with our brand's spirit. Your goal is to find new people and invite them into the Marc Nolan club.
- Be a "Style Passport" : Act as a style expert for our customers. Help them mix, match, and find their own look, encouraging them to live boldly, feel good, and have fun.
- Event Coordination : Help plan, promote, and host our in-store events—from new collection launches to community mixers. You'll leverage your network to drive attendance and make our flagship feel like a true club.
- Merchandising : Assist in keeping the store looking sharp, inspiring, and full of contemporary charm.
