MAIN ST MERCANTILE, an award-winning lifestyle boutique (hers/his/home) in Tiburon is seeking a dynamic sales professional for our downtown Tiburon boutique.

Please Note: EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED - WE WANT SOMEONE WHO CAN STEP INTO A SENIOR SELLING ROLE WITH LIMITED TRAINING. Your experience, know-how, client and industry connections are valuable to us. If you are the top seller in your current role but feel you are being undervalued keep reading.

If you love what you do and don't apologize for choosing retail, if you want to work in a well-run, professional environment with other top talent this is the opportunity you've been looking for.

We are prepared to make a sizeable investment and we want someone who is all in.

We'd love to meet you if you consider yourself:
- A Natural Seller
- Comfortable in a results-oriented, multi-paced environment (the shop can go from super slow to full house very quickly)
- Energized by change; and can shift gears quickly
- Able to reprioritize on the go
- A Multi-Tasker
- Stylish and an elevated dresser
- Self-aware and have uncanny ability to read people and the room
- Averse to Drama

If you enjoy working hard and laughing harder, MAIN ST MERCANTILE is a pretty great spot to call home.
We are smart, kind, and capable. We also might cuss a little, so please read between the lines and just know some well-placed irreverence and quick wit go a long way @ the MERC.

We are a small group of committed women who know intuitively when to act and when to partner. We foster collaboration and productivity. We can and do laugh at ourselves- a wicked sense of humor is a must. And when things get tough (and they will) we do what is necessary to move the business forward. We pivot when it's necessary and the best idea always wins. Sound good so far? If yes, keep reading.

WE’LL WANT YOU TO…
Be energized by working with customers - if people drain you, this for real is not your gig.
Toggle seamlessly between tasks and selling - you can easily drop what you are doing to engage a client.
Ensure you are always in the right place to maximize business, and most importantly manage your energy and allocate it to people and projects that best serve the needs of the business.
Know when you are needed (and when you are not).
Product knowledge is everywhere, take the initiative to learn about the brands you are selling- share your knowledge.
Be familiar with our brands and like what we sell, if you don't we can still be friends, but it will make selling much harder and not nearly as much fun!
Capture client info to drive repeat business.
Speak "Marin" our customers love visiting and locals love living here. The more you know about this beautiful place we call home, the better.

But wait, there's more...
We will also need you to have:
3+ years of sales experience in specialty retail.
College credentials are preferred, but ability, availability, and attitude trump all. We appreciate a college degree but prefer raw talent.
Tech Savvy, we cannot teach this (we've tried).
We use MS Office, iPhones, iPads, Google Docs, Outlook – must be familiar with all.
POINT of SALE EXPERIENCE (if you happen to know LIGHTSPEED be sure to let us know)!
Experience processing freight and stock replenishment.

Keeping the store looking great is everyone's responsibility if you are not familiar with retail standards, no need to apply. Our store appearance is as important as our volume. These are competing priorities and you have to be comfortable with maximizing sales while keeping the store to our standards.

Last on the list:

Ability to work a retail schedule - albeit a pretty sweet one. We can talk about what works best for this role.
Must be fit and be able to bend, reach, and stretch for product, as well as lift, carry, and move at least 30 pounds.
Note: We do not sit during our shifts.
Must have reliable transportation and child care if applicable.
