Love Wine, Beer and Spirits? Join the team at Market Wines University District!

Market Wines is one of Calgary’s most unique and exciting wine stores and we are looking for a Beer & Spirit Specialist to join our team! With a strong focus on customer service (actually, we're crazy about it) and an emphasis on staff training (you need to know what you're talking about) we provide our customers with a personal and enjoyable shopping experience.

Here’s what we’re looking for:

• Previous experience within the wine, beer and spirit industry.
• Enthusiastic, infectious, and go-getter attitude.
• Ready to go the extra mile to enhance customers’ retail experience.
• Maintaining pace on new products, and industry trends.
• Constantly staying inspired, generating new ideas for our promotions and creating content for our social media.
• Willing to host private and public tastings
• Value teamwork and are able to effectively participate and motivate others working within a team environment.
• Able to multitask and keep busy.
• Ability to take direction, be coached, and adaptable to change.
• Ability to lift around 28 pounds, bend and move quickly in a fast paced environment.

If this all sounds like you then we have some great news; Market Wines is an incredible place to work and the opportunities are almost endless!
