Overview

We’re building a world of health around every individual — shaping a more connected, convenient and compassionate health experience. At CVS Health®, you’ll be surrounded by passionate colleagues who care deeply, innovate with purpose, hold ourselves accountable and prioritize safety and quality in everything we do. The Store Manager In Training (SMIT) is a development‑focused role crafted to prepare you for a CVS Store Manager position.

The SMIT program is designed to enhance your career as a future store leader with a self‑paced, collaborative training over 16 weeks, including virtual and hands‑on learning experiences. The team supporting your growth includes your District Leader, Human Resources Business Partner, Training Store Manager, and your Store Manager coach.

We are invested in your growth and anticipate that you will be as well. We expect our SMITs to engage with your leader in Key Learning Experiences to support your path to promotion during the structured program, participate as a management team member, and lead in a manner consistent with CVS values and policies. You should engage colleagues in support of the company’s purpose of helping people on their path to better health, be willing to accept promotion roles in the market you work in, and understand that selection for the SMIT position does not guarantee promotion to Store Manager.
