Why This Job Is Different
This isn't just a retail job — it's a foot in the door with a hands-on, owner-operated small business that genuinely invests in its people. If you're someone who lights up when helping a customer, learns fast, and wants to grow into a leadership role over time, keep reading.
We own and operate three UPS Store locations across Marin County:
- 2100 4th St, San Rafael, CA 94901
- 336 Bon Air Shopping Center, Greenbrae, CA 94904
- 448 Ignacio Blvd, Novato, CA 94949
We're looking for our next entry-level associate — someone hungry to learn, great with people, and excited about the possibility of growing into a lead or management role as the business continues to expand.
What You'll Do
As a Center Associate, you'll be the face of our stores — helping customers ship packages, operate equipment (copiers, fax, binding, laminating), and navigate our full range of products and services. You'll become a trusted advisor who knows our offerings inside and out.
- Deliver outstanding customer service to walk-in customers and phone inquiries
- Take ownership of customer shipping needs and offer real solutions
- Learn all products, services, and industry best practices
- Operate all equipment confidently and help train others
- Maintain a clean, organized, and safe store environment
Pay & Growth
- Starting wage: $17/hr — bumps to $18/hr the moment you pass your notary exam
- Starts as part-time (3–4 days/week) during training
- Expected to grow into a full-time role within 60–90 days
- Long-term opportunity to grow into lead and management roles for the right person
We'll Make You a Notary Public — On Us
Within your first 45 days, we'll send you through a 6-hour live notary course and cover 100% of your training and licensing fees. You'll walk away with a 4-year Notary Public license that's yours to keep — a real, marketable credential that adds immediate value to your paycheck and your resume.
Our Culture
We believe in empowering our team, not micromanaging them. You'll work in an environment built on positive feedback, problem-solving, and real ownership of your role. If you want a job that plays to your strengths and gives you room to grow — this is it.

- Excellent phone and communication skills (verbal and written)
- Friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful
- Reliable, punctual, and accountable
- Able to lift 40+ lbs
- Willing to work across all 3 Marin locations as needed
Prior retail or customer service experience is a plus, but not required — we'll train the right person.
