Lead Merchandiser

Built Like Family

Viking Coca-Cola is a privately held company owned by the Faber Family. Viking Coca-Cola remains a dedicated family-run establishment that includes the Faber family and extends beyond to all members of the team including delivery drivers, sales personnel, executive management, and our partners.

As a Lead Merchandiser, you’ll keep Viking Coca-Cola looking sharp and running smooth across our customer locations—protecting freshness, driving standards, and keeping accounts ready for what’s next. You’ll lead by example on the floor, support sales initiatives, and keep communication flowing between store teams, sales reps, and drivers.

Key responsibilities include merchandising to standards, rotating product, managing inventory and handheld order entry, building displays/promotions, maintaining cleanliness at customer sites, completing required paperwork, and stepping in for delivery support or driver shortages when needed. You’ll also train and coach FT/PT Merchandisers and provide vacation coverage for Sales Bulk Reps.

• Strong customer service and clear communication
• Merchandising/display building; inventory accuracy and attention to detail
• Comfortable with handheld devices and independent decision-making
• Ability to operate a manual pallet jack; lift/move up to 2,200 lbs
• Valid driver’s license and current auto insurance

You’ll start by mapping your stops, syncing up with store leaders, and moving with purpose through aisles and backrooms. The day stays energized: quick handheld entries, sharp checks on freshness, and steady touchpoints with sales reps and drivers to keep every account on track. Between building eye‑catching promotions and jumping in to support coverage needs, you’ll stay hands‑on—coaching teammates in the moment and keeping things spotless, safe, and customer‑ready.

Your schedule is full‑time and flexible, including weekends and holidays, based onsite out of 7842 Industrial Park Road South, Baxter, MN.
