    Tea Server and Shop Director - British Columbia, Canada - Alliance for Arts and Culture

    Default job background
    Description

    Jude Wang opened Cultivate in 2014, when he returned to Vancouver after living in Beijing and Hong Kong, and gained an appreciation for fine Chinese tea.

    His intention was to create a place where people could come to experience rare teas and take time to enjoy the ritual that surrounds their preparation.

    Jude sources from small producers in remote regions in China and Japan whose teas exhibit masterful traditional craftsmanship.

    Cultivate is both a shop and a thoughtful space for seasonal tea tastings where the peaceful atmosphere and curated collection of ceramics and incense elevate the experience of the teas.

    Cultivate ensures that the tea is handled respectfully, from the moment the leaves open on the trees to the moment the tea is in the cup, and that, when we drink it, it is satisfying, clean, and makes us feel good.

    Cultivate is looking for a tea enthusiast to join our team at the shop on Main Street.

    This is an entry level position, with the intention that the selected person would move up to Store Manager after a 3 to 6 month trial period.

    The trial period will start with 15 hours a week, and a flexible schedule, at minimum wage plus tips.

    As Store Manager there will be both an increase in wage and hours, negotiated to suit the successful applicant.

    The greatest perks of this position are tasting the vast wealth of teas, matcha, and hojicha we stock, collaborating with interesting people on special events, and interacting with the shop's wonderful clientele.


    Responsibilities:
    Tasks will include
    Opening and closing the shop
    Operating the POS system (Square)
    Maintaining orderliness of the tea bar and displays
    Packing teas
    Taking inventory and restocking
    Cleaning
    Eventual tasks will include
    Serving teas
    Talking to customers about tea
    Hosting tastings
    Assisting with photo shoots
    Visual merchandising


    Qualifications:
    This is a self-directed position, well suited to someone who naturally takes initiative and responsibility towards tasks. It is also well suited to someone sincerely interested in learning about tea.

    There is an art both to serving tea and creating the atmosphere of the shop that we think are well suited to creative individuals.

    Experience with hospitality, customer service, and retail will be an asset. As will sensitivity to environment and decor.

    We welcome any level of experience with tea, and look forward to educating the successful applicant on the traditional Chinese, Japanese and Taiwanese teas in Cultivate's collection.

    Starting at minimum wage + tips, with the intention to increase wage to $ per hour after trial period, depending on performance
