Work on the forefront of outdoor recreation in Eureka Springs and Northwest Arkansas! We’re Float Eureka, a watersports outfitter specializing in canoe, kayak, and stand up paddleboard rentals and operating an outdoor gear retail shop. We’re located on highway 62 in the heart of Eureka Springs. We help our guests decide on an outdoor adventure and get on the water on one of the rivers and lakes in the area. Job starts May 10th and will run seasonally through mid-September

What you’ll do:

• Rent canoes, kayaks, stand up paddleboards, and related gear to customers
• Assist customers with choosing a river or lake trip destination
• Greet and talk with customers to sell merchandise in our shop,
• Monitor inventory and replenish displays
• Load and unload boats from canoe trailers, shuttle vehicles, and customers’ vehicles

We're looking for: Someone who enjoys interacting with people and providing great customer service. The ideal candidate has some experience working independently in a retail or other customer service setting. This role is responsible for keeping equipment and displays clean and organized. While the job is office based, you should be able to perform physical tasks. It's a plus if you appreciate the outdoors and being on the water, but not required and we will train you for the position.
