Job description

Are you a crate-digger with a sharp eye for rare pressings and a passion for music culture? Our shop is looking for a dedicated, high-energy individual to join our team full-time. We need someone who isn't just a fan of music, but someone who understands the hustle behind running a successful independent record store.

The Role

This isn’t just a "hang out and listen to music" gig. You’ll be responsible for ensuring our inventory stays fresh and our customers leave happy. You must be comfortable working independently, especially during nights and weekends.

Key Responsibilities

  • Store Operations: Handle opening and closing procedures with total reliability. This includes accurate drawer counts and daily reporting.

  • Sales & Service: Greet every customer, provide expert recommendations, and manage the checkout process efficiently.

  • Inventory Management: Grade and price new and used vinyl. You should know the difference between a "VG+" and a "Near Mint" record.

  • Organization: Keep the bins pristine. You must be able to alphabetize quickly and accurately (it’s harder than it looks when the shop gets busy!).

  • Acquisitions: Proactively look for and evaluate private collections for the store to purchase.

  • E-Commerce: Maintain our online presence by listing premium inventory on eBay and Discogs.

What We’re Looking For

  • Deep Musical Knowledge: Having an grasp of artists, albums, and genres—from Jazz and Psych-Rock to Hip-Hop and obscure B-sides is a plus.

  • Strong Work Ethic: You’re a self-starter who finds things to do during downtime (cleaning, organizing, re-sleeving).

  • Punctuality: Time is money. We need someone who shows up on time, every time.

  • Reliable Transportation: You must have your own car to assist with off-site collection buys and store errands. Mileage reimbursed.

  • Tech Savvy: Familiarity with the Discogs database and eBay selling tools is a major plus.

  • Physical Ability: Able to lift and move heavy crates of records (they get heavy fast!).

  • Knowledge of turntable set-up and audio gear is a big plus.

Why Join Us?

  • Competitive hourly pay.

  • Employee discounts on vinyl and gear.

  • A workspace surrounded by the best music in town.

  • The chance to help shape the inventory of a growing local business.

To Apply: Please drop off a resume in person at the shop or send an email with the subject line "Record Store Application to shopvinyllab@gmail.com. Tell us about your favorite genre and your experience with retail selling.

We are an equal opportunity employer. Music lovers of all stripes are encouraged to apply!
