  • Read customer cues and adapt your approach in real time
  • Maintain visual merchandising standards and overall store presentation
  • Support daily operations including opening, closing, restocking, and organization
  • Contribute to a clean, orderly, and well-run retail environment

What We're Looking For

  • 18 or older
  • 1+ year of experience in retail, hospitality, or customer service
  • Availability for weekday mornings, weekday evenings, weekend mornings, and weekend evenings
  • Confident initiating and sustaining genuine conversation with customers and teammates

  • Team-first mindset with the ability to work independently when needed
  • Background or genuine interest in art, design, or visual culture

  • Early career opportunity in sales and design
  • Flexible scheduling where possible
  • Invitations to cultural events and a hand in store curation
