Assistant Store Manager - Tysons Galleria, McLean, VA

About Us

In 1998, we left unfulfilling desk jobs to pursue a more vibrant lifestyle. We traded business suits for bathing suits, embraced spontaneity, and built a brand centered on fun, authenticity, and sharing the "Vineyard" experience. Decades later, our core values remain the same: we prioritize enjoyment, community, and creating a store environment where every day feels rewarding.
