Year Round Sales Associate - Traverse City
About The Position
American Spoon is seeking a year-round retail associate for our Traverse City store. This is a great opportunity for anyone who loves working with people and wants a steady role that flexes with the seasons — hours range from around 20/week in the low season up to 35/week during our busy summer and holiday stretches. As a Retail Associate, you'll be responsible for customer service and building long-term relationships between American Spoon and our customers. Retail Associates act as ambassadors for our brand, actively educating customers and staff about who we are and what we do, and will stock shelves both on the sales floor and in the stock room. Retail Associates are expected to maintain a clean, organized store and complete purchases at our POS (Point of Sale).
Requirements
- Public interaction experience is a must.
- Must have some weekday and weekend availability (especially Sundays).
- Must have some evening availability (up to 8pm.)
Nice To Haves
- A passion for food, cooking with fresh ingredients, and a strong interest in locally grown fruits and vegetables is a plus!
- Energetic spirit and a desire to work as part of a team, with high standards and no compromise on quality.
- Some retail experience — ideally in a small specialty shop — is preferred, but we welcome applicants from any background who bring a positive, professional attitude and genuinely enjoy people-facing work.
