PART-TIME OPERATIONS COORDINATOR / BUSINESS SUPPORT
Hackensack, NJ
$23-$26 per hour to start
10-20 hours per week initially
I own and operate an Edible Arrangements location in Bergen County and am looking for someone who wants to learn a real small business from the inside, help improve it, and grow into greater responsibility over time.
I am not looking for someone to simply complete tasks. I am looking for someone who takes pride in making things better, solving problems, improving systems, and helping bring order and accountability to a business.
The initial focus of this role will be learning the Edible Arrangements operation, understanding how the business works, identifying opportunities for improvement, and helping raise standards of execution, customer service, organization, and follow-through.
Over time, the right person may have the opportunity to help evaluate and develop additional business opportunities and projects.
Responsibilities:
• Learn the day-to-day operation of the business
• Help improve organization, consistency, and accountability
• Follow up on open items and ensure things get completed
• Assist with customer service and store operations
• Help identify operational improvements and inefficiencies
• Track projects, priorities, and follow-up items
• Communicate with vendors, customers, and business contacts
• Assist with outreach, partnerships, and local business development efforts
• Help create systems and processes that improve the business
The Ideal Candidate:
• Organized and detail-oriented
• Reliable and responsive
• Strong follow-through
• Comfortable taking initiative
• Good communicator
• Positive attitude and professional demeanor
• Interested in learning how a small business operates
• Enjoys solving problems and improving processes
• Able to work independently without constant supervision
This role is not ideal for someone looking for a large corporate environment or a highly specialized position.
It is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, likes helping a business improve, and wants their work to have a visible impact.
When responding, please include:
1. A brief summary of your background
2. What type of work you enjoy most
3. Why this position interests you
4. Your availability
5. Your desired hourly rate within the posted range
I value character, reliability, communication, initiative, and follow-through more than a perfect resume.
