What are the responsibilities and job description for the Luxury Retail Sales Associate, Custom Hats position at True West Hats?
Do you love people, style, travel, creativity—and the energy of making a great sale?
True West Hats is a growing, family-owned hat company located in Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village. We create handmade, heirloom-quality hats and give every customer a highly personal design experience.
We are looking for an energetic, ambitious salesperson who wants more than a traditional retail position. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys meeting interesting people from around the world, has a strong sense of personal style, and is excited by the challenge of turning a conversation into a meaningful sale.
Our best team member will be confident, engaging, curious, creative, and motivated to grow. You should genuinely enjoy talking with people, learning their stories, helping them make decisions, and creating an experience they will remember long after they leave Sedona.
You may be a great fit if you:
- Have proven sales experience in a luxury environment
- Are ambitious, self-motivated, and excited by commission opportunities and working with a team
- Know how to start conversations and connect naturally with new people
- Can confidently guide customers toward a purchase through design and creativity
- Have a strong eye for fashion, proportion, color, and personal style
- Enjoy an active, social environment with customers from around the world
- Take initiative
- Are dependable, polished, positive, and professional
- Want to learn about handmade hats, natural materials, leather, local jewelry, and artisan craftsmanship
- Must work weekends and holidays
Experience in luxury retail, fashion, jewelry, hospitality, real estate, event sales, beauty, or another relationship-based sales environment is especially valuable.
This is not passive retail.
Our team does not simply stand behind a counter and ring up purchases. We welcome customers, discover what they are looking for, help them choose a hat, guide them through customization, and create an experience that feels exciting and personal.
We provide extensive training in hat sizing, styling, materials, customization, and the True West sales experience. Hat knowledge is not required, but sales ability, ambition, personal presence, and a willingness to learn are essential.
What we offer:
- Base pay of $25 plus sales commissions once trained
- Hands-on training in styling and custom hat design
- A creative, high-energy workplace in the heart of Sedona
- A beautiful product you can feel proud to represent
