Seasonal retail associate Habor Springs, MI · Seasonal · Part-time or full-time $16–$17 per hour, DOE
American Spoon is looking for warm, food-loving people to join our Habor Springs store team for the season. Whether you're a teacher, student, retiree, or simply looking for meaningful seasonal work — if you love great food and great conversation, we'd love to meet you.
What you'll do
- Deliver exceptional, relationship-driven customer service that reflects the American Spoon brand
- Act as a brand ambassador — sharing your genuine enthusiasm for our products, our story, and the local ingredients behind them
- Educate customers and fellow staff about our preserves, nut butters, and locally sourced ingredients
- Stock and merchandise the sales floor and stock room, keeping everything organized and beautifully presented
- Maintain a clean, welcoming store environment at all times
- Complete sales transactions accurately using a tablet-based point-of-sale system — comfort with everyday technology and touchscreen devices is essential
What we're looking for
- A genuine passion for food, cooking, and Michigan's locally grown produce
- An energetic, team-oriented attitude with high personal standards
- Experience working directly with the public — in retail, hospitality, or a similar setting
- Comfort with technology — if you can navigate a smartphone with ease, you'll pick up our POS system quickly
- Previous specialty or small-shop retail experience is a plus, but not required
- Availability on both weekdays and weekends, with Sunday availability especially important
- A commitment to quality and an unwillingness to cut corners
