Dragonfly Maternity is a consignment boutique, fitness studio, and event space that provides support & connection for moms and families.
We're expanding our crew!
• Earn an income while spending time in a fun, friendly, and uplifting environment
• Enjoy easy access to our north central location with free parking and convenient public transit routes
• Receive 25% retail crew member discount as well as member access to our studio classes.
Must be able to commute to our north central location on Centre Street & 20 Ave North; shifts are in-person at our storefront.
Punctuality, reliability, attention to detail and strong communication skills are a requirement for this position with our crew.

-
Wednesdays - Fridays: 10am - 6pm (open late on Thursdays til 7pm)
-
Saturdays: 11am - 6pm

Scheduling and Duration of Shifts
Typical shifts range from 3 - 5 hours in duration. From time to time, a longer shift may be scheduled, in which a paid 30min break is extended. Shifts are typically scheduled by the management team a few weeks in advance; and additional shifts may become available for extra coverage depending on the schedules of other team members from week to week. As part of the interview and on-boarding process, qualified candidates will have the opportunity to discuss availability with management for scheduling purposes.
We are currently seeking an individual for a casual "floater" position in support of our regularly-scheduled staff members; thus not necessarily on our schedule each week. We typically have 2 - 3 shifts offered from regular staff per month; potentially more over the holiday season when staff members have booked time off.

This role is ideal for a friendly "people person" who has a passion for the second-hand industry and a nurturing nature for mamas. Motherhood experience would be a strong asset for connecting with our clientele, as the ability to connect with expecting mamas and meet the needs of our customers are qualities that we’re looking for — the customer experience at our consignment boutique is of utmost importance.
Retail experience would be a benefit, but not a requirement.
Retail Crew Member tasks & responsibilities involve:
• Maintaining positive customer experience: greeting customers, locating products, answering questions, performing sales transactions, and cleaning up change rooms
• Prepping and organizing inventory, assisting with in-takes (laundering, steaming, data entry, barcodes, photoshoots, racking)
• Cleaning around the shop (dusting, mopping, vacuuming, tidying bathrooms)
• Assisting with promotional packages
• Meeting retail goals without being “pushy”. Thorough knowledge of our inventory would be required for assisting customers; as well as connecting them to other service offerings at our space.
Independent opening & closing shifts would be extended once both parties (management and crew member) are comfortable with performance and shop operations, at the discretion of the management team.
Future expansion of the role (responsibilities and hourly wage) would be a possibility, pending capabilities of the individual.
Hourly wage starting at $16/hr, and negotiable depending on candidate's abilities, skills, and experience. Opportunity to advance into a senior role with higher-level responsibilities and increased hourly wage.
