Job Description

Position is located at a home improvement store. The gate attendant is stationed inside a guard shack at the entrance to the lumber yard at the store. The lumber yard is self- service, but gate attendants are responsible for checking customers in/out, guiding the customer to the location of an item if needed, confirming they have their correct receipt, and that they leave with the correct amount of merchandise.
