  • Researching industry trends, customer insights, and market data to support seasonal marketing briefs
  • Contributing to Merchandise Style-Out Presentations and collaborating with Marketing on promotions and campaign materials.

  • Bring Your Dog to Work Days
  • And more!

The hiring range for this position is $68,000 - $78,000. While the compensation within the posted range will vary based on experience, skill set, and internal equity, it is uncommon for new hires to be placed at the top of the range. This is a bonus eligible position.

WHY DXL?

We know there are so many great reasons WHY our associates love being a part of DXL. Here’s another…

I have enjoyed my tenure for the past 8 years here at DXL. I especially love seeing guests’ reactions when they step out of the fitting room in their new jeans. So many tell me they haven’t worn jeans in years because they’ve never found a comfortable pair. When you help them find the correct fit and size, it really boosts their confidence!

Choosing to start my professional journey at DXL was nothing short of the right decision. I have been provided with countless opportunities to create an upward career path for myself in Global Sourcing, as well as within the DXL Community. Being new to the workforce can be a little nerve-wracking; however, when you’re surrounded by the right people in your work environment, it gives you the courage to accomplish things you didn’t know you were capable of!
