NPR is hiring!
Navajo Pearls Ranch (NPR) is an online Native American jewelry company.
All our sales are all made online, and our working shop is located in Denver Co.
We are looking for a Jewelry maker, who is enrolled with the Navajo Nation to do piece work 4 days a week. Piecework means you are paid for each necklace or earring etc. that you make. Shift times are somewhat flexible. You will fulfill jewelry orders directly from our website. The assembly is pretty easy for the experienced stringer, but we will train you completely. There is also the oxidation process, done in a crock pot and then using a motorized wheel involved to grind the silver beads.
We need an artist for this as well, you can choose to only make jewelry though.
We furnish you with all the supplies and materials you will need.
It is helpful to have basic jewelry making skills like stringing beads, following a simple design, using pliers, finishing by crimping and attaching hooks and clasp etc.
During the training time you will be paid $18 hourly.
Requirements:
Must be Trustworthy and reliable
Must have proof of enrolled with the Navajo Nation
Must have reliable transportation, even in the winter.
Must live close to Denver/Lakewood
Be 18 yrs. or older with a valid Drivers License and verifiable home address
Hours and Compensation Once You Work from Home
You will be paid per piece of jewelry made, averaging about $20 to $30 per hour, depending on your skill level, but you will learn to make jewelry quickly as all our designs are similar. We currently have 3 Native artists working with us, and they are very happy with this position and earn good money.
You can start as Part Time but I really need someone in the shop 4 days a week 5 hour shifts
Pay is weekly, as an Independent Contractor, and artists receive a 10-99 tax for at the end of the year.
Perks
Work with a great and supportive team in a nice shop with coffee drinks and snacks
Flexible schedule especially once you are fully trained work extra hours when you want extra cash.
To Apply:
Please reply to this ad with some good details about you :-) It doesn't have to be a resume or formal, just tell me about you, how long you have lived here, a bit of your story and your experience.
