Bass Pro Shops, the highly anticipated outdoor retailer scheduled to open later this year in Morgantown is looking to hire 40 full-time outfitters across all departments for the new store.

Friendly individuals who want to share their passion of the outdoors with others are strongly encouraged to apply  by visiting basspro.com/careers and selecting the Morgantown location.

  • Team member benefits include:
  • Merchandise discounts up to 45% off
  • Competitive wages, holiday and vacation pay
  • Health, dental and life insurance programs for eligible team members

Earlier this year, Forbes ranked Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s in the top 10 among “America’s Best Employers” as part of a nationwide survey of 500 large firms.

In 2019, Bass Pro Shops announced plans to open the new destination retail location with an expansive five-story, first-of-its-kind boat display tower. More than just a fishing and hunting store, the retail location will also offer equipment and clothing for hiking, backpacking, wildlife viewing, camping and other related outdoor gear. With its aquariums and wildlife dioramas, Bass Pro Shops will offer something for the whole family.

Construction on the store is ongoing and a grand-opening date will be announced soon.

Bass Pro Shops is an equal opportunity employer and a drug-free workplace.

Bass Pro Shops was founded in 1972 when avid young angler Johnny Morris began selling tackle out of his father’s liquor store in Springfield, Mo. Today the company provides customers with  offerings spanning  destination retail, outdoor equipment manufacturing, resort destinations and more.
