What are the responsibilities and job description for the Packing & Fulfillment Associate position at ArtFair Apparel?
Packing & Fulfillment Associate | Boulder, CO (In person!)
$22.5/hr · Starting at ~8–12 hrs/week · Room to grow
About us
We're ArtFair Apparel, a small, growing apparel brand based in Boulder. We launched a couple years ago and we're growing fast (and having a blast doing it). We work out of a small office/fulfillment space here in Boulder, our tees are screen printed at a separate print shop in Denver, and we're looking for help packing orders once the tees arrive at our shop!
What you'll be doing
- Packing tee orders like each one is a gift (because to us, it kind of is)
- Keeping things organized and moving, especially during our "oh my gosh we just went viral" moments
- Catching little quality hiccups before they ever reach a customer
- Sharing your ideas — packaging tweaks, process hacks, anything that makes ArtFair even better
- Possibly helping with Snail Mail Club (our monthly subscription featuring our artists!) packaging down the road as that grows
- Jumping in on other organization and fulfillment odds and ends as they pop up
Who we're looking for
We're looking for someone who's actually invested and excited about this type of work -- someone who'd genuinely enjoy spending an afternoon carefully packing tees and making sure every single order feels special. Someone who notices when a corner's not quite lined up. Someone who has opinions, because we genuinely want them!
Heads up: this role starts part-time (~8–12 hrs/week), and honestly it might stay that way for a while, please don't apply just because you're counting on more hours. BUT... we grow fast, our stuff goes viral more than you'd expect (hours can jump to 15-20/week when that happens), and we really do want to grow the right person into a bigger role over time. If that sounds like a fun ride rather than a stressful one, keep reading.
You might be our person if...
- You're in or around Boulder and can work in person
- You're the friend who notices when a picture frame is 2° crooked
- You care about the why, not just the paycheck
- You can commit to a steady part-time schedule, with flexibility to flex up when we're busy
- You love the idea of a small team where your voice actually counts for something
- Bonus points if you're crafty, artsy, or just really into a satisfying, organized workspace
A little more about us
We screen-print original artist designs onto really good tees, working with Colorado (and beyond!) artists to help share their work and stories with the world. We've got lots of different designs from lots of different artists, with new ones added all the time. 10% of every sale goes straight to the artist who made it, and 10% of our profits go to nonprofits our artists pick themselves. We found most of our artists by literally driving around Colorado and Wyoming and knocking on doors because we loved their work that much (yes, really).
We're kinda obsessed with the customer experience, and every order that goes out the door means so much to us. We also run the ArtFair Snail Mail Club, a monthly subscription with hand-assembled envelopes, artist letters, prints, and stickers.
The details
- Pay: $22.5/hr

- Physical requirements: This role can involve regular lifting and carrying of 20-40 lbs boxes full of tshirts around the office. You should be comfortable being on your feet, folding tees and moving boxes consistently throughout the day.
- Hours: ~8–12 hrs/week to start, flexing up to 15–25 during busy/viral stretches, with real potential to grow toward full-time down the road
- Where: In person at our small Boulder office/fulfillment space (not a print shop — just packing, organizing, and shipping out orders)
