Full-Time Sales Associate
$20–$22/hour | 30–40 hours/week
Love fashion. Love people. Love making someone’s day?
La Crème St. Jacobs is looking for an outgoing, style-minded Full-Time Sales Associate to join our team.
For more than 30 years, La Crème has been helping women dress for the moments that matter, from everyday outfits and special events to milestone celebrations. We’re a locally owned boutique known for our curated collection of women’s fashion, accessories, gifts, and formalwear, but what truly sets us apart is the experience we create.
Our approach is simple: people first.
We believe great retail isn’t about making a quick sale. It’s about listening, building trust, offering thoughtful advice, and creating relationships that keep our clients coming back year after year.
What You’ll Do
As part of our sales team, you’ll:
- Create a warm, welcoming and personalized shopping experience for every client
- Build genuine, long-term client relationships through thoughtful service and follow-up
- Help clients discover clothing, accessories and gifts that suit their style, needs and occasion
- Work collaboratively with the team to achieve individual and store sales goals
- Develop strong product knowledge and confidently make recommendations
- Participate in training, special events, promotions and in-store initiatives
- Support merchandising and maintain the polished La Crème aesthetic throughout the store
- Use our POS system confidently and accurately
- Help create the positive, energetic atmosphere our clients and team know La Crème for
You Might Be a Great Fit If You...
- Genuinely enjoy working with people and making them feel comfortable and confident
- Have a passion for women’s fashion, styling, accessories and home décor
- Are comfortable starting conversations and building rapport with a wide range of clients
- Understand that relationships come before transactions
- Are motivated by goals and enjoy contributing to a successful sales environment
- Take initiative and notice what needs to be done
- Can problem-solve independently while knowing when to ask for support
- Communicate professionally and handle feedback and conflict with maturity
- Thrive in a busy, ever-changing retail environment
- Bring a positive attitude and enjoy being part of a close-knit team
Previous experience in retail, sales, customer service, marketing or communications is an asset. POS experience is also helpful, but we’re equally interested in finding someone with the right personality, work ethic and approach to people.
Why La Crème?
You’ll be joining a locally owned business with a loyal client community and a team that genuinely cares about creating a great experience.
We offer:
- $20–$22/hour, based on experience
- Commission/bonus opportunities
- Generous employee store discount
- Wellness program
- On-site parking
- Ongoing product and sales training
- A supportive, team-focused environment
- The opportunity to build meaningful relationships with our incredible clients
- Varied scheduling with an effort to accommodate vacation requests and rotate weekends fairly
And yes, working around beautiful clothes is a pretty great perk too.
