STUDIO ASSISTANT POSITION

This is an in house STUDIO ROLE - you will be working at my new place on Chapel Street in Windsor - Melbourne Australia. Starting out as casual hours!

I basically need a wizard who is up for helping me in all areas of the business.

Tasks will include a bit of ‘everything’ — for example:

  • Casting clean up

  • Polishing

  • Packing orders

  • Emails/enquiries + quoting customs

  • Making waxes/working with wax jewellery

  • Capturing content/video

  • Photographing stock + editing the photos.

  • Uploading items to the website

Just know you will not be expected to manage all of these tasks yourself — we will work together as a team to simply tackle what needs doing. So I will also be doing all of the above along with you. You might be on the tools while I write emails, or you might be taking photos while I create wax jewellery.

Experience is NOT necessary in any of the admin tasks, but i’m really looking for someone with at least a little bit of jewellery making experience because the casting clean up and polishing are my most important jobs that I need help with at the moment.

All the rest can be easily taught. I can provide extra training if you’re still a bit new to jewellery making, but ideally you will be comfortable and familiar with the tools. Applicants with more experience will be highly regarded, but don’t let this stop you from applying as this could turn into multiple roles!

This role is going to start out VERY casual, and i’m looking for someone quite flexible on availability. This will be a sub-contracted role to begin with, so I will not be employing you, you will be a sole trader. HOWEVER, this role has high potential to grow into a full time role which will lead to proper employment, so ideally i’m looking for someone who is prepared/interested in increasing hours, but long term ‘part time’ availability is also fine! I’m happy working with you on your ideal “situation”.

It is very important that you are someone who enjoys working with others but also thrives working on your own and taking initiative, I would like for you to be able to come in and work at times when I might not be there, or I might need a day to be non-verbal and just vibe with my headphones in haha!

Applicants with an eye for photos/content/capturing photos will also be highly regarded, but its not necessary - ultimately applicant will be chosen on personality, drive and work ethic.

If you run your own jewellery biz thats totally fine with me and will not affect your application! If you don’t actually have an interest in running a business, that also totally fine and would work well too!

Now, this might give off some serious energy, but i’m honestly chill I swear ahaha.

Ideally you’re someone who is passionate, driven, confident, positive and willing to learn, not afraid to make mistakes or ask for help. You take initiative and aren’t afraid to try new things or get your hands a little dirty and most of all, can handle constructive feedback.

Please be sure to apply even if you think you don’t tick all of the boxes, you never know!

CANT WAIT TO HEAR FROM YOU XXXX
