OTHER STUFF:

This is a casual work environment. Jeans and t-shirts are common attire for most employees. Work boots (steel toed are preferred) are strongly encouraged. As long as an employee is presentable, things like hair length, tattoos, and piercings are okay (provided visible tattoos are not profane). Our customers are extremely varied in things like appearance, ethnicity, religion/spirituality, sexual orientation, and cultural backgrounds and any serious applicant must understand and be comfortable with this and not have any problems dealing with such a varied, artistic customer base.

JOB DESCRIPTION:

Primary job responsibilities include processing daily small package orders (by creating sales orders/invoices, pulling stock items, properly packaging for shipment, and entering the packages into the UPS software system), receiving stock and checking it in, maintaining showroom stock, light cleaning (dusting shelves, cleaning bathrooms & floors, etc.), processing paperwork on outgoing freight shipments, answering phones, and greeting/helping customers. No prior knowledge of clay/ceramics is necessary. As you learn and absorb more information, you will be given more responsibilities. For example, when you start, you may only be required to answer phones and route calls or answer basic questions (business hours, directions, etc.), but as you learn, you will probably be able to help a customer in the store with tool or book suggestions, etc. The more you learn, the more valuable you become to us.
