Banana Manor is seeking a dynamic and energetic Team Member to join our team at our 10,000ft² Rug Factory Outlet located in Uptown New Orleans. This full-time position offers an exciting opportunity for individuals who have a passion for interior design and enjoy working in a lively retail environment. The ideal candidate will possess a likable personality, a sense of humor, and a love for beautiful things. You will play a crucial role in assisting retail customers and interior designers in selecting the perfect rugs, whether they are in stock or made to order. Additionally, you will be responsible for maintaining our website and other online channels to ensure our e-commerce presence is up to date. Our store operates seven days a week, with team members working five shifts per week from approximately 9:45 AM to 5 PM. This position is not corporate-minded; rather, it is part of a small, rapidly growing operation that values a strong work ethic and a positive attitude. The job requires physical stamina, as it involves flipping rugs to showcase options to customers and pulling rugs from stacks, often from the bottom. The work environment is an open-air warehouse, which can be hot or cold, and requires the ability to handle physical labor. We pride ourselves on creating a fun atmosphere, often joking with customers about the physical demands of the job, which we affectionately refer to as "Rug Crossfit." In addition to a competitive hourly wage of $30, there is a bonus pool available, and the potential for growth within our expanding team is significant. Candidates should be comfortable with technology, including internet usage, Microsoft Office products, and e-commerce platforms. This role is ideal for someone who is dependable, people-oriented, adaptable, and innovative, and who enjoys a fast-paced work environment.
