Description

Community Purpose Stability Security Beauty and deliciousness… What are the things that matter most to you? Our specialty food boutiques are celebrated around the world, and our people are the reason why. We are a small, independent, locally owned retail company with big company benefits like health insurance, paid vacation, 401k, travel perks, and very competitive pay. The small company part of us is about a dream for the community around us. The big company part of us is about how we support our team internally. We are not about “growth” or “progress,” that ragged fairytale about working brutal days to eventually, someday, make it big time. We’re about making today a great day, filled with meaningful connections in a beautiful surrounding that gives you that unmistakable thing we all crave deep down: belonging. In other words, we are not for everyone. ● 50% of our staff have been with us for over 5 years ● Our children work here Yet we are an internationally recognized leader, with customers from around the world. Our shelves are packed to the rafters with salt, chocolate, bitters, and fresh cut flowers. We are a funny kind of business. What makes us different is our people--and our people are looking for something deeper than just a job that gets them somewhere. Our people enjoy their lives right now, today, every day they come to work. And their work satisfies them, provides them the pay, benefits, and future security they need. Walking into The Meadow feels like stumbling upon something that nobody has discovered before, where the beautiful, the delicious, and the unexpected are brought together for all to enjoy. We specialize in artisan salt and salt blocks, the world’s great chocolate bars, craft cocktail bitters, and other gourmet items for the kitchen and bar. Everything is made by hand, curated with expertise, and shared with passion. We opened our first shop in 2006 in North Portland, one in New York City in 2010, our shop on NW 23rd in 2013, and our most recent shop on SE Hawthorne in winter 2021. And we're excited to add one retail professional to our growing team! The Meadow is looking for a part-time shop keeper at our NW 23rd Ave shop. This position has the opportunity to work 15 to 20 hours/week. Our perfect candidate has the following attributes: ● Love of food and flavor ● Superb verbal communication skills ● Ability to work independently for hours on end Must have: ● 2+ years of retail experience preferred ● Reliable transportation ● Must be available to work weekends Part-Time Retail Associate Benefits: ● Jar of craft salt every payday so you can cook and eat like a Sultan of Salt ● An artisan chocolate bar of choice every payday ● Yearly staff retreats after 400 days working - we've been to Bend, OR, Guatemala and more recently, Mexico City!

What is your favorite part about working retail, and why? 2. What is most important to you in life, and why? 3. Describe in 150 words the last really great meal you had.
