PART-TIME STUDIO ASSISTANT

Posted May 13, 2022

Gotamago is a family-owned, retail and wholesale business, operating out of our studio-shop in Toronto, Canada. In 2021, we rebranded our retail operations to Silver Antelope, which is also the brick-and-mortar face at the front of our studio. We are an inclusive company that puts people instead of profit first. We have a ton of fun, drink lots of coffee and tea, and enjoy geeking out over washi tapes and pretty notebooks.

We are currently looking for a part-time studio assistant, commencing immediately. As with any position in a small business with a tight-knit team, you will be wearing many hats. Our ideal candidate is a self-starter, with high work ethics and the ambition to grow and learn over time. 

 

Wage:  $16 per hour, 16 hours per week to start. Must have availability on weekdays.

Candidate must:

  • Be able to travel to our studio in East York (Woodbine & Lumsden)
  • Possess excellent communication and customer service skills
  • Possess high attention to detail, and a positive attitude
  • Love stationery and (ahem) Gotamago products
  • Enjoy being around dogs (we currently have one friendly shop dog, and would welcome you bringing yours!)
  • Be self-motivated and capable of working autonomously
  • Be interested in learning about the nuts and bolts of a creative business

 

Not required, but nice to have skills:

  • Experience with Shopify, Etsy and Trello
  • Familiarity with Google Docs & Sheets
  • Interest in social media, photography and content creation
  • Have good penmanship, and enjoy doing creative things

 

Sample Tasks:

  • Assemble cards and other products
  • Package orders and coordinate shipment
  • Help customers in the shop and handle transactions
  • Perform inventory counts
  • Restock front of shop and help with display
  • Edit website pages
  • Maintain online databases
  • Pet the dog 

If you are the right person for this job, please email your resume to lichia@gotamago.com with the subject “I'm the One Pho Gotamago”, and tell us about yourself. We look forward to hearing from you! 

Deadline for applications: Open until position is filled
