About the Role

- Document condition, wear, flaws, and notable callouts with a high level of accuracy
- Compare products against internal standards and brand reference materials
- Flag inconsistencies, damage, or authenticity concerns to leadership
- Ensure items are properly logged and ready for listing or live sale
- Upload COAs to TikTok, Whatnot, eBay, and other platforms on time
- Continuously build knowledge of luxury brands, materials, and resale standards
What We're Looking For
- Strong attention to detail and ability to spot inconsistencies
- Interest in luxury fashion, handbags, accessories, or the resale market
- Organized and reliable with comfort doing repetitive, detail-oriented work
- Quick learner who can follow detailed processes accurately
- Comfortable with spreadsheets, inventory systems, and documentation tools
- Clear communicator with a team-oriented attitude
Nice to Have
