About SoHum Scent Bar
SoHum Scent Bar is a fragrance studio rooted in craftsmanship, community, and considered design. We create hand-poured candles, perfumes, reed diffusers, and home fragrance goods, and host immersive scent experiences where guests slow down, connect, and create.
We are not a traditional retail job. This is a role for someone who wants to understand how a brand is built from the inside out—how a product is formulated, made, sold, experienced, and remembered.
---
The Role
We are looking for a part-time team member who will integrate across **all parts of the business**: manufacturing, retail sales, and scent bar experiences. This is a hands-on, detail-driven role for someone who takes pride in both making and hosting.
You will move fluidly between the back-of-house and the front-of-house—pouring candles one hour, guiding a perfume experience the next, and helping a guest find the perfect scent for their home or a meaningful gift.
This role is ideal for someone who loves working with their hands, connecting with people, and being part of a growing, design-led brand.

What You’ll Do
Manufacturing & Production
* Hand-pour candles, blend fragrances, and prepare home and body products
* Label, package, and quality-check finished goods
* Assist with inventory tracking, materials organization, and production cycles
* Maintain a clean, organized, and efficient workspace
Retail & Customer Experience
* Welcome and guide customers through our scent collections and product offerings
* Support in-store sales and Shopify POS transactions
* Merchandise shelves, refill displays, and maintain brand presentation
* Handle online order fulfillment and local pickups
Scent Bar Experiences
* Host candle-making and perfume-blending experiences
* Set up and reset the space before and after bookings
* Walk guests through fragrance notes, blending, and the creative process
* Create a warm, thoughtful, and memorable atmosphere for groups and private events
---
Who You Are
* Naturally warm, confident, and comfortable speaking with people
* Detail-oriented with a strong sense of care and follow-through
* Curious and eager to learn how a business operates end-to-end
* Calm under pressure and adaptable in a fast-moving environment
* Drawn to craft, design, and sensory experiences
Retail, hospitality, production, or creative studio experience is an asset—but not required. We value mindset and care as much as background.
---
What We Offer
* Part-time, secure role in a growing, design-forward brand
* Hands-on training across fragrance, production, retail, and experiences
* A creative, supportive work environment rooted in community
* Opportunity to grow with the company as we expand our reach and offerings
---
Schedule
This role follows our in-store hours and production needs, including weekdays and some weekends for experiences and events. You MUST be available to work day time shifts during the week.
---
How to Apply
Send your resume and a short note telling us **why SoHum speaks to you** and what excites you about working in a hands-on, creative business.
We’re less interested in perfect resumes—and more interested in people who care deeply about what they make and how they make others feel.
