Are you passionate about cannabis and eager to deepen your knowledge of this amazing plant? Do you enjoy connecting with people and helping them find the right products to suit their needs? Whether you’ve worked in retail before or simply love the idea of educating others and delivering top-tier customer service, we want to meet you!
At Prairie Canna, we’re committed to creating a welcoming, inclusive, and educational environment for both our customers and our team. We’re currently looking for two part-time seasonal Budtenders to join our crew, with approximately 10-15 hours per week. This is a great opportunity for someone looking to gain hands-on experience in the cannabis retail industry. While the position is part-time to start, there’s potential for additional hours in the future.
This is a seasonal position running from May through September. There may be an opportunity to transition into a casual role at the end of the season, supporting coverage as our employees return from seasonal leave in September.
The successful candidate must be available to work at both of our Saskatoon locations (8th and 22nd Street) as part of their regular schedule. Flexibility and reliability are essential, as shifts will be scheduled between the two stores based on operational needs. Additionally, there may be occasional shifts covering deliveries, so a valid driver’s license and comfort with driving are considered assets.
We value reliability, motivation, and a genuine enthusiasm for cannabis culture. If you’re someone who shows up with a positive attitude, is eager to learn, and thrives in a fast-paced, customer-focused environment, you might be exactly who we’re looking for.
Join the Prairie Canna Fam and help us continue to provide a knowledgeable, friendly, and elevated experience for our community!
