What are the responsibilities and job description for the Front Office Clerk/Receptionist position at That Dirty Dog?
Receptionist Job description
Part time position. Must be able to work a combination of weekends and weekdays.
This is not your typical receptionist position! Love of dogs and understanding their behavior is certainly a plus but not required. You will be greeting customers, making and confirming appointments, checking in customers and taking payments, assisting our Self Wash customers with getting set up and started, assisting with cleaning chores such as laundry, vacuuming and cleaning tubs. You’ll be answering and screening phone calls and responding to email and text requests for appointments. This position has a heavy call volume with a high paced environment. You’ll be responsible for keeping the front desk, lobby and retail areas neat, tidy, and dusted. This position requires a very detailed oriented and time efficient candidate.
You absolutely must be cheerful and patient on the phone and in person! You should be able to handle a high stress, busy environment and keep your cool. While loving dogs is important, this position requires that you love people, too - you'll be handling customer complaints and expectations, which can at times be difficult.
You should not apply if you are allergic to dogs and cats or have asthma which is easily triggered. We use HEPA air filters but it may not be enough to keep you from experiencing symptoms over the course of a work day.
You should be over 18 with no criminal history and a valid driver's license and reliable transportation!
We will require employment references. We may do a criminal background check or drug test at will.
