The Position

We're hiring a retail sales and online marketing person for our Norwalk shop. You will help customers in the store and help Atelier present its instruments, rentals, and accessories online.

The work is split between the sales floor and practical marketing: clear posts, email, and website offers that match what the shop actually sells.

Responsibilities

  • Sell violins, violas, cellos, double basses, bows, strings, and accessories in the Norwalk shop.
  • Help with rentals and fittings when a customer needs them.
  • Write and post accurate online marketing for the shop and atelierfinestrings.com.
  • Keep online offers, photos, and descriptions consistent with the shop.
  • Answer customer questions in the store and from online inquiries.

Qualifications

  • Comfortable selling in person and writing clearly.
  • Some experience with social posts, email, or online advertising is welcome. Willingness to learn our tools matters as much.
  • Organized and reliable.
  • Playing a string instrument is a plus.

Shop hours are Monday through Friday, 10 am to 5 pm. The Norwalk shop is closed Saturday and Sunday.

Pay and Benefits

$18.00 – $35.00 per hour base pay, depending on experience, plus 3% commission on in-store instrument sales.

Benefits: Paid vacation and company holidays for full-time positions only. All employees, full-time and part-time, earn paid sick leave as required by Connecticut law: 1 hour for every 30 hours worked, up to 40 hours per year. Part-time employees also enjoy a flexible schedule, employee discounts, and the benefit of working in an enjoyable, upbeat environment among a terrific team of professionals. Health insurance is not offered.
