Shopkeeper - Retail Team Member

Shopkeeper - Full Time Retail Team Member

• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid vacation
• The opportunity to work with a thoughtful small team in a beautiful retail environment

Addison West is a home décor, design, and lifestyle brand rooted in Vermont. We believe in creating spaces that are both beautiful and deeply lived in—homes that reflect the people who gather in them.

As a small, woman-owned business, we’re committed to doing things thoughtfully. That means supporting independent makers, strengthening our local economy, and prioritizing products made with care and integrity. We also believe in progress over perfection—continually working to reduce our environmental impact, improve our operations, and build a business that serves more than profit.

We are currently pursuing B Corp certification, reflecting our commitment to balancing purpose and profit across how we operate, hire, and grow.

We’re looking for a full-time team member to join our Waitsfield shop.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys both the creative and operational sides of retail — from helping customers find something they love for their home to helping keep the shop running smoothly behind the scenes.

You’ll work closely with our team to ensure the store feels welcoming, organized, and inspiring every day. It’s a role that combines people, product, and problem solving, and offers the opportunity to grow inside a small but ambitious Vermont business.

This individual will also be responsible for developing local community engagement initiatives and events.

Retail experience is wonderful, but we’re equally interested in candidates who bring strong organizational skills, curiosity, and a positive approach to teamwork.

• Welcome customers and help them discover pieces they’ll love for their homes
• Help maintain the beautiful, curated atmosphere Addison West is known for
• Support inventory receiving and processing
• Assist with daily shop operations
  
  Contribute ideas that help the store continue to grow and improve
• Support events and special shop initiatives

You might be a great fit if you:

• Enjoy working with people and creating welcoming environments
• Are organized, proactive, and detail-oriented
• Take pride in making things run smoothly
• Like the pace and variety of retail
• Have an interest in design, home, or beautiful objects (not required, but a bonus)
• Are excited about contributing to a growing small business

• This role involves being on your feet for much of the day, helping move merchandise or receive deliveries.
• The position may include some weekends and holidays, however we are flexible with this position, so do not let working on the weekends deter you from applying.

Addison West is a growing company, and team members often take on new responsibilities over time. This role offers the opportunity to learn about retail operations, merchandising, and the world of home design.

If you’re someone who enjoys being part of a small team, takes pride in thoughtful work, and wants to contribute to a business that’s continually evolving and improving—we’d love to hear from you.

Please send a brief note about yourself and your experience to Waitsfield general manager Anna Mays at  .

We’d love to hear why you’re interested in joining the Addison West team.
