Now Hiring – Sales Assistant
Part-Time Sales Assistant
Flexible Position – Approx. 28 Hours Per Week
Caribou Publishing is seeking a PART-TIME EMPLOYEE to work at our Viking, Alberta & Killam, Alberta locations. This will be a flexible position with hours and days somewhat negotiable. Employee would ideally work 4 days per week (9am – 4 pm – preferably Monday & Tuesday in Viking, Thursday & Friday in Killam). These are not set in stone, however, and can be discussed if called in for an interview.
Key objectives: to place sales calls by telephone to – and perform occasional in-person visits with – regular and new customers, while handling light office duties, incoming customer service interactions, and generally helping others in the office as needed. This employee will report directly to the Production/Sales Manager. Must have own vehicle and a valid driver’s license for needed travel to work. There is an opportunity for the right candidate to grow by learning other skills related to the business, but sales will be the primary objective upon hire.
Qualifications:
Successful candidate MUST BE OUTGOING and a people person and know that your job, first and foremost, is to interact positively with customers. If you are uncomfortable making a phone call, this job is not for you. Must have a high school diploma or equivalent. Past customer service experience preferred. No previous newspaper-specific experience necessary. Must have own transportation with travel required between Viking and Killam.
If interested, please apply with cover letter, resume, and references: in-person at The Weekly Review office in Viking or Community Press office in Killam; by email to vikingreview@gmail.com;
or by fax to 780-336-3223.
