Job Description:
A Jack or Jill of all trades, with a background in customer service, a love of design, and a strange addiction to details & organization. Your day at Mango Reclaimed is focused on serving our customers {in store and online}. You’ll love being an expert on our products, including the lines of paint we sell for DIY customers, {training included}! You will gain satisfaction from offering guidance, colour consultations, and problem solving unique requests for our customers every day! You’ll exercise your design skills as you take responsibility for staging our showroom's furniture and products, ensuring inventory is replenished, creating appealing vignettes for our window displays and a welcoming space for customers to meander through. 'Downtime' in the showroom will be spent with a combination of bookkeeping and studio maintenance tasks. We’ll provide you with a supportive, fun work environment, valuable skills and experience, and the opportunity to grow with us.
