About this role

Working as a Brand Ambassador at American Eagle's West Des Moines location means representing a heritage American brand while engaging directly with customers on the sales floor. This part-time, in-store role centers on embodying the brand's values of authenticity and self-expression, helping customers find casual apparel that fits their personal style. You'd be a visible part of the store experience, connecting people to American Eagle's collections and mission.

The position calls for someone genuinely aligned with the brand and comfortable in a customer-facing environment. While the job description emphasizes cultural fit and community connection over a specific list of prior experience, you should be prepared for a typical retail sales dynamic—helping customers, processing transactions, and maintaining store standards. Pay varies based on your background and location, and part-time eligibility for benefits like paid sick leave and the REAL rewards program depends on meeting company requirements.

This role suits someone seeking flexible, part-time retail work who enjoys fashion, values authentic brand connection, and wants to be part of a team rooted in youth culture and self-expression.
