What are the responsibilities and job description for the Bookseller position at Odyssey Bookshop?
Part-time Bookseller
The Odyssey Bookshop in South Hadley, MA, is seeking a part-time week-end bookseller (12-16 hours/week). The successful candidate will be someone who has enthusiasm for a diverse range of books and people. Bookselling requires high energy, excellent customer service, computer skills, attention to details, and multi-tasking. All applicants should understand that being a bookseller requires manual labor - shelving books, lifting boxes and standing at the cash register for an extended period of time. A background in either sales or the book industry is a plus. Good written and verbal communication skills are necessary, as is having your own transportation. Ideal candidate would be interested in retail and e-commerce bookselling as a career, not just a job. Hourly wage is $15/hour with some benefits.
Odyssey Bookshop is an equal opportunity, affirmative action employer, and women, people of color, and LGBTQ people are encouraged to apply.
