Sales Associate Part Time - Austin, TX at Blenders… · Austin

Who We Are

Born in San Diego in 2012, Blenders Eyewear was built on a simple idea: great style, performance, and accessibility shouldn’t require compromise. What started as a passion project has grown into a fast-scaling eyewear brand across Sun, Snow, and RX - designed for people who choose to stand out, not blend in.
We’re building a retail experience that matches our product: high energy, product-led, and performance-driven.

• Engaging customers and influencing purchase decisions
• Driving conversion, AOV, and overall revenue
• Creating a high-energy, product-focused in-store experience

You’ll work closely with store leadership and be a key contributor to how the business performs day-to-day.

• Execute transactions accurately and efficiently
• Support inventory, replenishment, and loss prevention standards

Team & Culture

• Partner with leadership to continuously elevate execution

What You Bring

• Confidence in engaging customers and driving sales outcomes
