- Promote special deals & new products – because who doesn’t love a good promotion?
- Conduct Merchandising Check-Ins – verify product placement, ensure branding compliance, and make sure our brands are shining on the shelves.
- Gather insights – track inventory, chat with staff, and take photos to help brands stay on top of their game.
- Keep the vibe fun, professional, and engaging – we want every interaction to be a great experience!

- Outgoing, friendly, and love talking to people
- Passionate about cannabis – you know your stuff, and you’re excited to share it!
- Reliable and professional – you show up on time and ready to go
- Comfortable with tech – our scheduling and reporting platform is web-based
- Have a valid driver’s license & reliable transportation – you’ll be traveling between dispensaries
