Job description

Hoi Bo is an independent fashion studio dedicated to creating timeless, sculptural pieces with an emphasis on quality, materiality, and responsible design. Every garment and accessory is made with intention—crafted to last, evolve, and be truly lived in.

We're looking for someone who shares our values: a love of fashion, an appreciation for small business culture, and a sincere approach to customer relationships. If you’re passionate about helping people discover pieces they’ll love for years to come—and you’re eager to grow in a creative, close-knit environment—we’d love to meet you.

The Role

As a Junior Stylist, you will:

• Create a welcoming and inspiring store experience by engaging customers in a meaningful, personal way—listening, styling, and helping them find pieces that fit their lives.
• Drive sales through an authentic and thoughtful approach. We don’t believe in commission-based selling, but we do believe in helping customers make confident, informed purchases.
• Communicate with clients both in person and online through thoughtful styling advice, product knowledge, and excellent customer support.
• Maintain the shop floor setup and ensure the space reflects our brand standards at all times.
• Create engaging, brand-aligned content for social media that brings the in‑store experience to life.
• Use internal tools (including Basecamp and Omnisend) to stay connected with the team and support client communications.
• Support daily store operations, including opening and closing responsibilities.
• Take initiative—anticipate what needs to be done and do it, without being asked.

What We're Looking For

This role is for someone who:

• Loves fashion and appreciates well‑made, thoughtfully designed pieces.
• Is a natural with people and genuinely enjoys creating memorable customer experiences.
• Has a selling instinct—comfortable guiding customers and closing with confidence and care.
• Has a natural eye for styling and a strong personal aesthetic.
• Is digitally comfortable and quick to learn new tools.
• Is interested in content creation and has an eye for visuals and brand storytelling.
• Feels comfortable communicating with clients both in person and online.
• Is proactive, organized, and takes initiative without needing to be directed.
• Understands the dynamics of a small business and shows up as a dependable, committed team member.

Why Join Us?

• A creative and purpose-driven brand built on meaningful values.
• An inspiring retail space with a team that cares deeply about their work.
• A collaborative environment where your voice and ideas are heard.
• Opportunities for growth within the company.
• Location: In‑person, Little Portugal – 1396 Dundas St. West / Historic Distillery District – 15 Trinity Street. Scheduling across both locations depends on staffing needs.
• Schedule: 4–20 hours/week, includes weekends and some holidays
