We're looking for someone who will clearly and cheerfully represent our robust chocolate operation and be a warm, welcoming presence. This person must be equipped with information for customers not only about our products, but about our process. They will take 1-2 shifts per week in our shop as well as lead factory tours and host tasting and pairing events and classes! It's a fun job where you'll be filling boxes of beautiful chocolates, fielding phone inquiries, giving out chocolate samples, and helping us run more events.
We have a small staff of about 8 people, and we all pitch in to get things done. You'll never be bored, but the job isn't stressful or strenuous either. We're looking for someone who can work about 10-15 hours per week at first, and more as the holidays come our way in November and December.
