Sales Associate Keyholder - California

This is a unique and exciting time to join Express. Since launching our EXPRESSway Forward strategy in 2020, we have been steadily advancing a transformation from being known as a store in the mall to a brand with a purpose, powered by a styling community. We believe that clothes can serve a higher purpose to make people look the way they want to look and feel the way they want to feel, and our Express brand purpose – We Create Confidence & Inspire Self-Expression – speaks to the role our brand can play in their lives.

Today, we are reimagining our retail and outlet stores with a spirit of hospitality so everyone who walks through our doors has a positive experience and leaves wanting to be a part of Generation Express. We call our stores ‘Style Studios’ and our sales associate teams ‘Style Squads’ – and they are the most important part of our transformation. Our culture is defined by three values – Express Yourself, Express Together, Express Success – and we invite you to join us and help build, activate and amplify the Express styling community.
