Motivated and passionate -- we are always looking for that perfect team player!
Motivated and passionate are two words that describe the people who work at Fleet Feet Mobile and Fleet Feet Pensacola. Our team members are our most valuable asset. They are the ones that provide the best care to our life blood -- our customers! We go to great lengths to look for amazing people who are willing to put others first and are motivated to continually learn how to better serve our customers.
Fleet Feet is a fun and rewarding place to work for people who have a passion for quality guest service. From part-time positions to full-time careers, we will work with you to match your job desires. Marjorie and Micaiah (both former Outfitters and now Fleet Feet store owners) are passionate about what they do and are looking for the same qualities in their staff.

Are you right for Fleet Feet? Is Fleet Feet right for you?
Test yourself with these questions:
Do you have a sales sense? Our customers appreciate learning about our products -- from shoe technology to the importance of carrying a hydration pack, our customers always have questions for us. You should be comfortable (even passionate and excited) about suggesting items people might enjoy and benefit from.
Are you good at switching gears? When customer traffic slows, you will find yourself busy with stocking, cleaning, rearranging the store, and more. But when somebody walks in the door, your focus needs to switch immediately and fully to friendly customer service.
Can you stay calm and friendly under pressure? Imagine providing superior customer care to 2 guests at the same time (with your other team members doing the same) while 5 more guests are waiting. They all want the same level of attention and care and they want thisin a timely fashion while you reamin friendly and appreciative. Things can get very busy in our stores and there is always work to be done. Be prepared for a fast-paced job all day long!
Are you a team player? Our 2 Fleet Feet stores function like a family in that we are always working closely with each other, sometimes under stress. No matter what’s going on in your week, your team members will be counting on you to be show up and give 100% when your shift starts. We all depend on each other and support each other. We expect our outfitters to be respectful, patient, and pull their weight when it comes to our customers and stores.
Are you willing to learn new things? People know us as the FIT experts. “FIT” does not just refer to shoes, but to all of our products and our service. You’ll need to make an effort to get educated about all of our products so you can deliver the high level of service our guests have come to expect. We’ll help you, but it will be up to you to ask questions and take the time to learn and remember things.
Do you pay attention to the little things? It’s the thoughtful little touches that make a “specialty” store so special -- like remembering a frequent guest’s name or what type of shoe they run in. Going the extra mile for a guest by staying open late or rush shipping them a pair of socks before a big race is what sets us apart. Fun little extras go a long way and make your job worth the effort.
Are you patient and eager to serve people? We expect team members to take a friendly attitude towards customers: to smile and greet them as soon as they walk in, to make conversation with all kinds of people, to serve their needs, to take time and care for them. If you feel shy or awkward about talking with strangers or if you are not willing to serve guests (including touching their feet) you maynot like it here.
Are you available on evenings and weekends? In this business, evenings and weekends are a KEY TIME when many of our customers shop and/or stop by the store for special events. It is critical to our continued success that our employees be flexible and comfortable working a variety of shifts, including evenings, weekends, and some holidays.
If you answered “yes” to the questions above, you could be a good fit for Fleet Feet!
