Special Pre-Op Phase:
- Mandatory online training (10–12 hours) prior to HQ training in Rochester, NY.
- HQ training is July14-15 or in August. The selected candidate will be flown up with the owner, hotel and food paid.
Initially, the role commences as a part-time community outreach position (approximately 12–18 hours/week) focusing on relationship building and market research. As we approach the store opening (approximately 12 weeks out), your workload will transition to full-time (24–30 hours/week), focusing on sales growth and team leadership. Hours will naturally increase as we get closer to opening, with full-time expected about 4 weeks out. They may go over the 12–18 hours before that depending on opportunity. We are targeting a September 2026 soft opening date.
