RETAIL SALES ASSOCIATE/INTERPRETIVE GUIDE – MAHONE BAY
Seasonal - May-December
Every person who walks through the doors of an Amos Pewter shop does so for a particular reason. From our long-time loyal customer who is looking to add to their collection to the visitor in Mahone Bay who was attracted by the hand-crafted pieces in the window display. We know that our hand-crafted pewter creations are exceptional – kudos to all our artisans for their creativity and attention to detail. We want you to be the icing on our cake!
A typical day for you might include:
· Welcoming visitors with all the enthusiasm of seeing an old friend
· Helping a young man find the Wild Rose necklace he came in to buy for his girlfriend and wrapping it up with the matching earrings you pointed out
· Providing visitors with a “wow” experience by offering them a workshop tour with one of our artisans who will fill in the story of how a solid ingot of pewter transforms into the hand-crafted pieces in the shop
· Channeling your inner neat-freak throughout the shop
We’d love to see your resume if you:
· Have the superpower of knowing what the just-right gift is for that special someone even though you’ve never met them
· Can make somebody’s day better just because of the great experience they have with you
· Are able to explain just about anything to anyone, face-to-face and on the phone
· Think on your feet and feel confident in your decision-making
· Would be enthusiastically described as “reliable, flexible and dedicated” by your previous employers
Bonus points if you:
· Have a plaque hanging on your wall at home saying “the customer is always right”
· Get excited to offer your ideas to others on teams you work with
· Want to rock this position and have fun doing it
We offer successful applicants:
· Discounts on our hand-crafted designs
· Hands-on training in retail and demonstrations
· A team environment
By the way, you don’t need to have been a superstar salesperson in your past life to have developed your awesome people skills - we’ve been excited to work with superstars from lots of different backgrounds. We can’t wait to hear your story!
