About the role
- We have adopted a hybrid work model whereby employees use a combination of working in office and virtually in service of outcomes.
- All hiring decisions, including candidate evaluation, selection, and disposition, are made by human recruiters.
- Mark's is a leader in product development, innovation and quality through its assortment of industrial apparel, footwear and accessories, with strong private and exclusive brands.
Responsibilities
- Design and test mission‑based workflows that connect enterprise priorities to frontline execution, supporting automated prompts, insights, and performance feedback loops for store leaders and teams.
- Develop prototype performance frameworks that integrate data, objectives, and behaviours-translating strategy into simple, operationally relevant guidance for stores, with a roadmap toward scalable automation.
- Document learnings and recommendations from pilots and trials, including adoption barriers, change management considerations, and opportunities to further embed AI into Store Operations rhythms.
Requirements
- Undergraduate degree (or near completion) in Business, Analytics, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field.
- Strong analytical and problem‑solving mindset, with the ability to translate data, insights, and priorities into clear, practical actions.
- Working familiarity with Microsoft 365 tools, with demonstrated interest or early experience using Copilot or AI‑assisted productivity tools.
- Ability to work in ambiguity, supporting test‑and‑learn pilots while maintaining structure, documentation, and follow‑through.
- This role is required to be in person for 4 days a week at the Calgary head office.
- Curiosity for how technology, behaviour, and performance intersect in a frontline retail environment.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills suited for both operational partners and senior leadership audiences.
- What Makes This Role Unique
- This role blends analytics, product thinking, and change enablement-it is intentionally hands‑on, experimental, and execution‑focused, rather than a traditional business intelligence or reporting role.
- Hands‑on exposure to applied AI in retail Store Operations, not theoretical or experimental work.
- Direct involvement in shaping how performance management and execution discipline evolve at Mark's.
- Opportunity to influence future enterprise tooling and capability decisions through grounded, real‑world pilots.
- High visibility with senior Store Operations leadership during a defined, outcome‑oriented contract period.
- Why Join Mark's
- At Mark's, we focus on making work simpler, clearer, and more impactful for our frontline teams. This role is an opportunity to help define how AI can meaningfully support that ambition-turning strategy into action, and data into better decisions, in the flow of retail work.
