Verify customer identification and eligibility before completing any sale.
Follow all company policies, operating procedures, and state and local cannabis regulations.

Resolve routine customer questions professionally and refer complaints, compliance issues, or unusual situations to a Lead Budtender or manager.
Participate in product education, vendor training, team meetings, and ongoing sales coaching.
Stay informed about new products, promotions, store priorities, and daily sales goals.
Complete assigned cleaning, organizing, restocking, and operational tasks during slower periods.
Communicate clearly with leads and management regarding customer concerns, inventory issues, transaction discrepancies, or operational needs.
Protect customer privacy, company information, inventory, and store assets.

Basic math skills, including calculating change, discounts, percentages, and transaction totals.
Comfortable handling cash and learning point-of-sale and cashless payment systems.
Strong verbal communication and interpersonal skills.
Ability to remain professional, patient, and helpful with a wide range of customers.
Ability to multitask, maintain attention to detail, and work efficiently in a fast-paced retail environment.
Dependable, punctual, accountable, and able to follow through on assigned responsibilities.
Ability to work cooperatively as part of a team and accept direction and feedback.
Must meet all legal and company requirements for employment in a licensed cannabis dispensary.
A valid driver’s license and acceptable driving history may be required for employees assigned delivery or driving responsibilities.
