Shop Associate

About the Role

We’re looking for a friendly, dependable, and responsible person to join our small consignment shop. This is a hands-on role where everyone helps with different parts of keeping the shop running, organized, and welcoming. You’ll eventually be trusted with store keys and may be responsible for opening or closing the shop independently.

Responsibilities

• Greet customers and help create a friendly, welcoming atmosphere
• Check customers out and handle purchases at the register
• Receive clothing that customers bring in for consignment
• Go through clothing drop-offs and follow our process for accepting and entering items
• Learn and use our consignment system to manage customer drop-offs and inventory
• Price clothing and prepare items to go onto the floor
• Put clothing away and keep racks and displays organized
• Help customers with the dressing room and return items to the floor
• Keep the shop neat, organized, and looking good throughout the day
• Help merchandise the shop, including dressing and refreshing the front windows
• Open or close the store when scheduled and follow our opening and closing procedures
• Follow shop policies and processes consistently

Requirements

• Personable and comfortable talking with customers
• Reliable, responsible, and trustworthy
• Available to work weekends
• Organized and attentive to details
• Comfortable learning a computer-based consignment and inventory system
• Able to follow established processes and policies
• Comfortable working independently when needed
• Interested in clothing, style, resale, or consignment
• Willing to jump in and help with whatever needs to be done

Previous experience in a shop, restaurant, customer-facing business, or similar environment is helpful, but not required. Reliability, attitude, and willingness to learn are more important to us.

Benefits

We’re a small business, so we don’t offer a traditional corporate benefits package. What we can offer is a supportive, flexible work environment and the opportunity to become an important and trusted part of the shop. After six months, employees may become eligible for additional incentives, including paid vacation time. We hope to continue building on these incentives as our business grows.

Schedule

Part-time, with weekend availability required.
