Blurb about Sales Coordinator

You could be Free Geek's next Sales Coordinator! The ideal candidate need not possess an in-depth knowledge of computers and/or electronic gizmos but rather a willingness to learn about Free Geek culture and a desire to help increase income for the organization. There will be some months of training before candidate is fully up-to-speed, so patience is crucial. In fact, the first 6 months of your time at Free Geek are as a probationary member. The ideal candidate will be able to work well under stress in a somewhat chaotic setting and maintain a positive attitude. The candidate will not be afraid to ask questions but will be able to work on projects almost entirely without supervision. The candidate will be able to remain flexible as Free Geek grows and changes. The position emphasizes coordinating and empowering Free Geek volunteers to participate in daily Thrift Store functioning as much as possible. Additionally, this position is responsible for keeping the store running in a consistent fashion. Read on, intrepid soul!
