Growth Coordinator

Fragmented Nostalgia•Maplewood, MN

About The Position

We're Fragmented Nostalgia — Minnesota's premier Pokémon, Digimon, and anime store, home in Maplewood Mall since Halloween 2022. We carry one of the largest selections of Pokémon and Digimon plush around, plus a deep lineup of Magical Girl anime (Sailor Moon, Card Captor Sakura, Madoka Magica), figures, Loungefly, blind boxes, ichiban kuji, and Japanese/Korean/Chinese Pokémon TCG. Beyond the storefront, we're on the road — you'll find us at conventions across the country year-round. We're hiring one person to help us grow. This isn't a sit-at-a-desk job. You'll work directly with the owners to make things happen.

Requirements

Takes initiative without being told twice.
Comfortable cold-emailing a stranger, walking up to a vendor at a con, and posting to thousands of followers — all in the same day.
Follows through, and would rather own a project than be handed a checklist.
Strong handle on Pokémon and Magical Girl anime.
Ability to tell a Madoka fan from a Sailor Moon fan and know why that matters for an event or a post.
Must not need a lot of structure and direction to get moving.

Responsibilities

Reach out to local events, venues, and similar businesses to set up collaborations and partnerships
Post and manage our social media — consistently, not "when you get to it"
Plan and run our in-store events from idea to cleanup
Work the occasional convention with our team
