Overview
Are you a night owl who works best independently? Our third-shift Sales Associates (typically between 10 PM and 6 AM) are responsible for keeping the store running smoothly overnight — often as the only employee on site.
This role is ideal for someone who is confident, self-motivated, and comfortable working alone for extended periods. You’ll be trusted to handle everything from deep cleaning restrooms and taking out trash, to stocking shelves and maintaining the fuel area. You'll also be responsible for assisting any late-night customers and ensuring the store stays secure, clean, and ready for the next day.
