Halifax, Canada Amos Pewter Full time

EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY

RETAIL SALES ASSOCIATE/INTERPRETIVE GUIDE- HALIFAX WATERFRONT

Seasonal - Sept/Oct

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 new customer who was attracted by the hand-crafted pieces in the window display and even the person walking along the waterfront who just ducked into the shop for a few minutes to escape the heat. 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
- Wowing visitors with your knowledge of pewter as you share the steps in the design and production process that transform the solid ingot of pewter into the hand-crafted pieces in the shop
- Calling Mahone Bay to order more nativity sets
- Channeling your inner neat-freak throughout the shop

We’d love to see your resume if you:

- Have the superpower of knowing what the perfect 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
- Can 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 sales person in your past life to have developed your awesome people skills - we’ve been excited to work with superstars from heaps of different backgrounds. We can’t wait to hear your story
