Help Wanted
Repurposed is seeking an enthusiastic and professional retail sales associate to join us on a year-round, part-time basis. Although this is a retail position, a talent for selling is far less important than a friendly demeanor, an ability to remember product details, and a desire to make sure visitors enjoy their time at our business and during their visit to Provincetown.
Duties and Responsibilities
- Prior to opening, perform opening procedures and count register for the day
- Ensure that the store opens on time
- Greet all customers and assist in an engaging and professional manner

- Make helpful gift recommendations that will be useful to the customer
- Offer suggestions for other stores, restaurants, and activities when asked
- Handle all transactions with accuracy

- Make every effort to ensure every customer has an enjoyable experience
- Maintain the appearance of all displays, tidying and restocking as needed
- Be conscious of potential security issue and minimize shrinkage
- Fill web orders accurately
- Participate in receiving, inventorying, stocking, and ordering as directed
- Perform cleaning duties as needed, including dusting, cleaning glass, and vacuuming
- Close register and check for accuracy at end of day
This is a part-time hourly position with a loyalty bonus at the end of the summer season. Some weekend, evening, and holiday hours are required, particularly during the summer season. Repurposed offers a very casual working environment. We do not "hard sell."
Because of the dire housing shortage on Cape Cod, and particularly in Provincetown, we will only consider those who live in the area or already have a solid commitment for a residence. We are sorry that we are not able to assist with housing arrangements.
Since we will ask you for references, upon offering the position we will gladly provide references from those who have worked with or for us before.
Requirements and Qualifications
- High school diploma or equivalent
- Experience in a customer service setting is strongly preferred
- Basic reading, writing, math, and computer skills
