Join Our Team as the Film Courier! See how to apply below
You probably know about our courier service, but today we’re rebranding this role because really, “courier” does not do this role any justice. The courier is really the manager of our store on wheels, or the head of out-of-store logistics, or the remote customer manager, or the out-in-the-community engagement leader. The point in a new job title is to fully represent all that this role is really about now and and in the near future. Right now we’re looking for the right person to step into this role and help delight film and print lovers with current and future services.
In this role, you’ll start each day in the lab (currently each Wednesday and Saturday), collecting various orders that have been marked for delivery back to customers in the city and nearby suburbs. You’ll also have a list of orders to collect. These orders can be of a great variety and need to be handled with great care, so you need to be a super accountable and organized person. You’ll arrange your day and communicate with all the customers on your list. And when you’re done, you’ll bring everything back to the lab for processing.
Although the role is external to our physical store, you’ll be very integrated into our operations, the team, and culture. And you’ll get to meet and win the trust of many regular customers and first time users. You’ll get access to our operational systems, including a special phone number and email address, and you’ll benefit from our employee free processing plan.
In the fall, we expect to add many new features to this service that we hope you could help us shape and launch, so hopefully you like building systems and inventing better ways to do things. We need someone to start right away. If you’re curious and want to learn more please send your resume and cover letter to public@myphotolounge.com.
Typically the weekly shifts come to about 10-15 hours. The pay is good, starting at $13 while training. And we cover every mile driven. You’ll also get free processing, as mentioned.
