Work Context

Communication – Regular communication with your manager and team members will be required, using SLACK primarily (our communication application) and phone, to ensure we stay on top of inventory needs, supplies, customer service issues that might affect the company, etc. Also, we encourage a sharing of ideas (products, processes/procedures, etc.) as a team to always be looking to improve ourselves and the brand. 

Role Relationships – In this role, you will have three role relationships. The first role will be as a team member where you will have an equal voice as other team members. While you will mainly work independently in your average day-to-day activity, you will be a key member of the overall team to ensure things run smoothly. The second role will be the main customer service liaison. We look to have you under promise and overdeliver to our customers. We want to wow our customers with our service. While mistakes/errors or hiccups happen, within or without our control, it’s about how we resolve the issue that makes our brand stand out from our competitors. The final role will be as a brand ambassador. When you wear our brand, work at our facility, or speak on behalf of the company, you represent the brand, and we expect our team members to always act accordingly.

Work Setting – In this role, you will work in a warehouse setting in the back of a retail shop in the downtown historic district of Montrose. There will be shelves, boxes, packing materials, and some small hazards due to the nature of the warehouse. In the customer service role, you can manage this role from the warehouse on a supplied laptop and on your mobile phone, if you decide to. While we want to maintain a clean and organized work environment, due to the nature of packing and unpacking inventory, you may be exposed to mild dust or dirt. The building will be climate controlled.

Job Hazards – There will be lifting required with this role when restocking shelves or organizing the warehouse space. You are required to lift a minimum of 45lbs. You may also work with a box cuter and packing tape.

Body Positioning – 90% of the job will require you to be standing or moving around on your feet. You will need to be able to do some lifting, kneeling, bending, and reaching throughout the day. 

Work Attire – Clean & comfortable clothes, along with slip-proof closed-toed shoes are required. 

Impact of Decisions – Once trained you will have independence in making decisions on how the warehouse is organized to ensure the best efficiency for you and anyone who may work with you or cover for you. When working with customers, you will oversee making some important customer-facing decisions. However, you will always have the support of your manager when needed or unsure how to proceed. We encourage teamwork and asking for help!

Routine versus Challenging Work – Much of the role will be routine and repetitive.

Pace and Scheduling – The scheduling & pace each day will be flexible, as long as the orders go out by the post-office deadline every day (1 pm) and all customer service concerns are addressed daily.
