CHOCOLATE COUNTER (SEASONAL)
You’ll be working at our chocolate kiosk inside Thornes Marketplace to help customers prepare gift boxes of truffles and caramels. General cash handling and point-of-sale experience is great, but experience with specialized sales (wine, coffee, cheese, books, etc.) would be ideal.
The majority of sales will be working with customers one-on-one to help pick out gifts, so people skills will go a long way. You have a knack for making bad days better and can handle tough interactions with grace.
Our space is small and most shifts will be working alone for extended periods of time. You’ll be expected to work independently for long periods with little direction, keeping the kiosk tidy, and completing assigned tasks (pre-folding/stamping gift boxes, cleaning, making assortments, and restocking). It’d be great if you have solo opening/closing experience.
The rate for this position is between $16-$17/hr base rate depending on experience, plus tips (~ $1.50-$2/hr on slow weeks to $3-$4/hr on busier weeks). We offer paid time off in addition to sick time. This position is seasonal and is expected to be available for help on at least 1 weekend day and holiday weekends. Hours of operation are 10 - 6 Mon - Thur, Friday and Saturday are 10 AM to 8PM (morning shifts end around 4:30, evening shifts start around 12:30) and Sundays 12PM to 5PM (solo - one shift). In December, hours will extend to 8PM closes every day. This position has a planned end date of December 31st, but may be extended into February depending on your interest and sales.
This role does require periods of standing and lifting up to 30lbs (with reasonable accommodation).
To apply, send the following to firetypechocolate@gmail.com with Application - Counter in the subject line:
- Your resume
- A little about yourself
- Availability (rough start date, days of the week, hours, etc)
Please note that we typically do not follow up if you’re not selected for an interview. That said, we do keep applications on hand and review them regularly as our needs change! Thank you!
