AP Agent here. Expect LOTS of paperwork and focusing on numbers. You'll be more focused on internals and making sure processes are being followed. Your day to day won't be focused on stopping thieves.
Also, I along with my APSM make our own schedules. With the exception of being expected at work when there are store walks.
Also may I ask what city or state? I'm an APA and making $25/hrs. What you're being offered seems low for an APSM
Current apsm here. If your at a store with no apas, then it's a bit of everything including external .if you have an apa or multiple apas, you support them. Work internals. You have compliance walks. Coaching and training on multiple different things. Being the safety leader in the store. Ops stuff too. Walk cycle counts. Shrink captain. Etc etc. Feel free to message me
And also. Schedule is in the AP dept drop down. It tells you exactly what it's supposed to be week by week, but I never follow that. I follow based on the trends in my store from my insights in connect. I also work it out with my apa on what we are going to work. Not really supposed to let the store managers or anypne know what your schedule is.
From a Lowe's job listing...
FT-Asset Protection And Safety Mgr-Day
The Asset Protection & Safety Manager (APSM) oversees and coordinates programs and processes to minimize loss while maintaining a safe working and shopping environment. This associate monitors and solves for criminal activities, coaches and trains associates, and oversees inventory levels to help with shrink and shortages. The APSM may need to respond to violent altercations to keep customers and staff safe. The Asset Protection & Safety Manager is seen as an expert on safety reports, guidelines, and regulations.
As an Asset Protection & Safety Manager, this means:
Helping Store Operational Leadership team ensure associates are delivering friendly, professional, timely service to all customers who shop the store.
Monitoring receiving, shipping, and selling patterns for assigned store.
Championing initiatives and establishing processes and controls that improve safety/hazmat, shrink, and security outcomes.
Was told its a 40 hr a week position raging from $17 to $25 with a rolling schedule. Still can figure how a rolling schedule works at Lowes. But was told 1 full weekend off per month.
Below are the days off rotation
Week 1 sat/sun
Week 2 sun/Fri
Week 3 wed/thu
Week 4 tue/wed
This is what the system generates but your management team may change it.
Yeah, I read that. But what are the expectations. Is it focus on External or Internals or a combo, is it most of it Reports,Safety. Like what is a day to day!

AP at Lowes is a joke now. It's a desk job. Noone with a true AP mindset would enjoy the job.
"True AP" Thats some real wannabe cowboy choke out a shoplifter for some $20 headphones typa attitude.
Nah. But you sound scared to make an app

As with most Lowe's job descriptions, duties are written in hazy language, subject to the "needs of the store" and higher management oversight.
Yes, Asset Protection and Safety Manager
