Who We Want To Hire:
We are hiring for part-time retail sales positions in the Stonehouse Olive Oil & Wheelgirl Bike shop. Whomever we hire needs to be able to join a team of people who love cooking, good food, and actively ride a bike. You thrive in the retail sales environment, and you enjoy selling high-quality products. Ideally, you are bright, extroverted, energetic, and completely customer-service oriented. You naturally have a neat, professional appearance. You like to keep your work environment immaculate and organized. You have a flair for hoilday display and product placement, and you dig 4th Street in Berkeley because it is a convenient and totally enjoyable place to work.

Tons of people like to eat and ride bikes, so we are looking for those who pride themselves on excellent customer service, have retail sales experience, and arrive to work on time every time. (You know who you are; you are the employee who gets to work, gets the job done, and is a great teammate because of this.) If you live in or around Berkeley, that is a plus.

We want people who are happy to do whatever it takes to help their colleagues and customers have a great experience while they are working and shopping in the 4th street store. We are pro education, so we are willing to work with your school schedule. We already have punctual, totally awesome service-oriented employees, but we need a few more. Since some of the summer employees are leaving for college in a few weeks.

Duties:
*Work retail sales for both stores simultaneously. You will open and close. You will sell and restock items and supplies, and you will work the cash register and take inventory, etc. You may also make product suggestions after 90 days. The main focus of the job is on selling and customer service.
*Pro-actively engage with customers and sell products from both shops. For example, you might help a Stonehouse Olive Oil customer select a gift basket, and then help that same customer pick out an appropriate bike messenger bag or bike jacket. We will train you in the detailed specifics of each product. So no worries there. But you must be someone who can retain information and thrives on the selling atmosphere of a busy retail environment.

Hours:
Available hours are between 10:30-6:30 seven days a week. We have weekday and weekend hours available. If you are going to be here through December 31, and you can work the holiday rush, you will get extra special consideration.

Apply for Jobs:
Reply to this email address and paste your resume in the body of the email. DO NOT SEND ATTACHMENTS. We will not open ANY attachments. You also can drop off your resume at the store, but please realize we are at work, and we cannot chat with you while we are trying to help customers. You can check out the stonehouseoliveoil dot com website as well as the wheelgirl dot com website to get an idea of the products and the vibe.
