About the Position.

We are a growing neighborhood shipping, packaging, and business-services store looking for a reliable, motivated, and versatile person to join our front office team.. We are looking for more than someone who simply wants a job. We want someone who is organized, comfortable with technology, willing to learn, takes initiative, and can bring value to a small business environment.. The ideal candidate will help with the daily operation of the store while also bringing additional skills that can help us grow..

Responsibilities.

• Assist customers at the front counter.
• Receive, label, organize, and prepare packages.
• Enter packages and customer information into our computer system.
• Prepare packages for carrier pickup.
• Print shipping labels and documents.
• Make copies, scans, and basic office documents.
• Organize inventory, supplies, and the store.
• Help maintain a clean and organized workspace.
• Answer phones and assist customers with general questions.
• Assist with packing and shipping orders.
• Help track incoming and outgoing packages.
• Learn and operate our shipping/packaging systems.
• Assist with general administrative and office tasks.

The Right Candidate.

• A self-starter who doesn't need to be told every little thing.
• Comfortable working independently and as part of a small team.
• Good at communicating.
• Willing to help wherever needed.
• Interested in learning and growing.

Experience in shipping, retail, office administration, printing, graphic design, IT, or customer service is a plus — but we are willing to train the right person.

Why This Opportunity Is Different.

This is a small-business environment where your ideas and skills can actually make an impact.. If you're someone who has a side business, freelance work, or a particular skill set and you're looking for an opportunity to work, network, develop your skills, and potentially expand your professional opportunities, we'd like to meet you.. We're looking for someone who sees an opportunity to be part of something that can grow — not just someone looking to clock in and clock out..
