• Respond to and accurately document security incidents.
• Understand and leverage escalation tools for guest issues in order to provide a safe and secure environment for our team members and guests.
• Conduct productive merchandise recoveries and provide apprehension support as needed, strictly adhering to AP policies and procedures and AP leadership guidance.
• Prevent theft and shortage at the front of store by performing receipt checks for exposed high-dollar merchandise.
• Submit appropriate documentation in the system for all incidents following AP policy and procedures.
• Understand and appropriately use the video system.
• Model working safely while maintaining a clean store for guests and team members.
• Provide service and a shopping experience that meets the needs of the guest.
