You will be the bridge between our vendors, our Pochi warehouse, our three cafe locations, and any other local suppliers.

- Age & Licensing: Must be 25 years of age or older (required for company vehicle insurance coverage) and possess a valid WA Driver’s License with a clean driving record.
- Communication: Exceptional written communication skills are a must. Most coordination with the owner, store teams, and vendors happens via email or messaging platforms; clarity and professionalism are vital.
- Physical Ability: Must be able to lift up to 50 lbs, load/unload the van, and remain active throughout the shift.
- Organization: A logical mindset with an eye for detail—you should enjoy creating order out of chaos.
- Driving Experience: Experience driving large vehicles (i.e. Sprinter Van) is a plus.
