Coho Books is looking for Book Nerds!
Coho Books is looking for staff to start 1 June 2022. The position will be permanent and part time with a base of 20hrs/week. Work will be during store hours Mondays thru Saturdays from 10 am to 5 pm with either 4 hour or 7 hour shifts available.
The ideal applicant will have retail experience dealing with general public, must know your ABCs, know your way around a computer, be inclusive to all humans and be at least a little weird.
Job duties and responsibilities will include providing high quality customer service, making phone calls for special orders, shelving books that get out of line, maintaining and improving our store and inventory (we have had some great ideas from our staff: Manga, Grab Bags, Window Displays).
The most important part of the job is tracking down books with as little information as possible, “I don’t remember the author’s name or title, but it was set during WWII”. We are looking for a friendly weirdo to join the rest of us friendly weirdos. Priority goes to proactive folks who can take on a line up of customers and 30 boxes of new books to unpack and process with a feral grin. We offer minimum wage to start, a fun work environment, flexible scheduling and puppies!
Fair warning, our job is chaos
We are the masters of chaos
You must love chaos
