We're hiring a wholesale specialist (soonish)!
Uh... soonish?
Hi! Kyndra here. :) I'll be looking to hire a wholesale specialist towards the end of the summer. I'd love to do it earlier, but the calendar will not be working in my favor for that.
I've "soft-launched" this remote job posting for anyone who notices it, that way I'll know initial candidates have initiative and a strong attention to detail – two important traits for this role.
I will not be filling this position until late-July/early-August, but if you're interested, I'd encourage you to apply when you find this, as earlier applicants will be given priority. I'll "hard-launch" this job posting once we're closer to an actual hiring date.
Nitty Gritty
- Status: part-time employee
- Commitment: 6 hours per week (2 three-hour shifts) that are flexible but consistent. (We'll work around your schedule to determine the best shift times, then shifts will be consistent from week-to-week.) Opportunity for more hours down the line!
- Compensation: $15 while training, bumped quickly to $17 after training is complete (~1 month). Higher pay available based on experience!
- Location: Remote
- Travel: optional ~2 weeks of travel per year to attend trade shows with Kyndra
- Additional benefit(s): 25% off employee discount
