Senior Store Associate

Please do NOT contact the store directly about this role (no email, no phone calls, and no walk-ins). Our on-site team is focused on serving customers, which is our top priority. Apply using the form on this page. About us Mail, Copy, and More provides physical and virtual mailbox services, packing, shipping through major carriers (DHL, FedEx, UPS, USPS), office supplies, printing services, scanning, faxing, notary, passport photos, and much more. Our community is our most important asset, and our reason for existing as a business. We're looking for an experienced Senior Store Associate to join our team. About the job Put the customer first. Be personable and professional, build rapport with our regulars, and meet each customer at their comfort level. Answer questions and resolve issues with the customer's needs above the shop's convenience and our own egos. Handle packages end-to-end: receive, organize, and store them, hand them to customers, and ship outbound mail and packages through DHL, FedEx, UPS, and USPS. Run print jobs: color and black-and-white, single- or double-sided, various sizes. Resize and adjust files as needed, then finish them (hole punch, staple, bind, cut, stack, arrange) to the customer's spec. Make copies. Send and receive faxes. Process sales and returns accurately on the point-of-sale system, including the credit card terminal, checks, and cash. Answer the store's phone, voicemail, and email. Keep the store clean and well organized. Troubleshoot the store's equipment when it acts up: computers, printers, the point-of-sale system, and other machines. Fix what you can, and know when to call the vendor. Learn every store process and write it down as you go, as training material others can follow. Once enough is captured, help design and roll out improvements so the store runs consistently, serves more customers without adding staff, and can be repeated in future locations. Take on ambiguous, ambitious problems (for example, "design a new inventory system for this store that we can reuse in future stores") and deliver on time with proactive updates. Open and/or close the store on your own on a regular basis, starting within your first two weeks. Being a self-starter who operates completely independently and without supervision, and reliably being in the store helping our customers during your hours, are an absolutely essential part of this role. Help with other duties as directed by the Manager. Physical demands: bend, lift, squat, stand, sit, twist, or reach for up to 8 hours at a time, and regularly lift, push, pull, or drag items up to 25 lbs. Some items weigh more. About you Available to reliably work about 40 hours per week: initially Monday-Friday @ 11:00am-6:30pm, plus alternating Saturdays @ 10:00am-3:30pm, though we're looking for someone flexible beyond that availability too. Our store is closed Sundays. Days and hours may shift as demand changes. Hold a Washington notary public commission, or apply for one in your first week and have it within 3 months of your start date. At least two of the following three: 2+ years with ShipRite or similar shipping software, or extensive hands‑on experience shipping with USPS, UPS, DHL, and FedEx: setting and comparing shipping rates across package sizes, processing inbound and outbound packages, managing mailbox rentals, and managing inventory and pricing. 2+ years on production printers such as the Konica Minolta C361i, C4070 Digital Press, or Epson Stylus Pro 9800: scanning, copying, managing print queues, and changing paper and ink. 2+ years with Adobe Acrobat plus any of these graphics tools: Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Canva, GIMP, CorelDRAW.

Communicate openly and constructively with teammates and management, and ask insightful questions. Authorized to work in the United States. Nice to have Have used an AI assistant (Gemini, Claude, or ChatGPT) to edit images and documents. 2+ years with a work/ticket tracker such as Jira, Asana, Monday.com, or Azure DevOps: defining tasks, knowing what "done" means, keeping tasks current, proactively taking on new work, and documenting improvements to how we work.
