WEIMAX WINES & SPIRITS has an open position for a wine-knowledgeable staff member. We're a small, family wine shop and in addition to guiding customers to good bottles of wine, we spend much of the day engrossed in normal retail endeavors: stock work--"house-keeping", re-stocking bins and floor-stacks, filling the beer cooler-- gift-wrapping packages, sweeping the floor, washing wine glasses in the tasting room, running the cash register/P-O-S system, etc.
We also taste lots of wines during the course of the week in hopes of discovering some new gems which are worthy of our recommendation. You will have a chance to taste a bunch of interesting wine!
Prospective candidates should have a passion for and working knowledge of wine. We feature good wines from the West Coast, Europe, South America, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. We also feature top distilled spirits and beers.

• be capable of lifting 40 to 50-pound boxes.
• some knowledge of the world of wine
• have good communication skills.

We are looking for someone for full-time and a part-timer, too.
It pays $22 an hour for full-time and $20 for part-time, with a small benefits package after a probationary period.
There's also a nice employee discount.
Being able to drive here is ideal, as public transit to our area is difficult.
Weimax is a old-time, family-operated shop. We've been here since 1961. The store is not just a neighborhood shop, but wine aficionados view us as a "destination."
Please send a copy of your resume and a few words introducing yourself and explaining a bit as to why you'd be a qualified candidate.
