Previous experience working in a retail environment (especially one where working with cheese) is necessary. Applicants must be extremely detail-oriented, good at multi-tasking, and most of all, must love people and the fine art of selling cheese!

Responsibilities include: opening and closing the shop, managing daily cash, maintaining a clean and attractive shop, interacting with retail customers and chefs, cutting and wrapping cheeses, preparing wholesale orders for pickup, stocking and organizing inventory, communicating with our cheese cave to order cheeses for the shop.
