Guests will leave excited to share their personalized videos and photos and eager to explore new experiences in the future. You’ll also be well-prepared to step in to enhance the experience by proactively providing guidance on the surrounding retail area or handling within-store Guest escalations whenever required.

During periods of downtime, you’ll proactively lead the team in maximizing walk-in potential.
- Shift Leadership: Consistently initiate check-ins with team members starting their shifts, providing a clear outline of the day's goals, and how to achieve success. You’re consistently engaging with team members, offering in-the-moment coaching to keep performance and morale high.
- Training: You will help integrate our new Guest Experience Guides and Leads into the organization by providing on-the-job training of our full Guest Journey. You’ll also have partial or full responsibility for our automatically assigned e-learning course catalog and will help new staff complete training while maintaining front-of-house service support.
