We are hiring part‑time Retail Scan Associates to perform in‑store data collection at assigned local retailers every week for 52 weeks a year, including holiday weeks. Our store types include grocery, convenience, drug, pet, and mass merchandise stores. We work with major brand retailers such as Walmart, Kroger, Target, Albertsons, and other national chains, as well as small independent retailers.

Retail Scan Associates use a downloadable app on their mobile phone to scan barcodes in numerous locations throughout each store. The base hours for this position average from 6‑10 hours per week across all stores, depending on store size and workload. Additional hours (typically 1–2 hours per week per store) are frequently assigned for special projects throughout the year, with higher demand from January through June.

While scanning barcodes each week, you will be asked to provide the quantity of about 45% of the products you scan. You will complete Display Scanning on the entire store, which occurs every week and can take several hours to finish. Our clients frequently request more specific details about products in the main stocking locations; this additional work is referred to as Custom Projects and can add 30 minutes to 2 hours of work for those weeks per store.

Adhering to weekly deadlines is critical to the data we deliver to our clients. We ask for dependability and quality‑driven action from our Retail Scan Associates in exchange for the exciting opportunity of independence in the workplace, along with some flexibility.
