Wine Shop Sales ( PT )

WHO WE ARE

The Boise Co-op has come a long way since 1973, when a group of health-conscious neighbors kicked things off as a humble food-buying club. Today, we’re a bustling, independent Co-op with over 50,000 active Co-Owners, two grocery stores (North End + The Village at Meridian), and three specialty gems nestled in our North End hub: the Wine Shop, Pet Shop, and Uncorked Wine Bar.

We’re more than a grocery store—we’re your local hangout, your go-to for good food and great wine, and your partner in building a stronger community. We believe in education, connection, and products you can trust. We're here because we care—about food, about people, and about making Boise a better place.

• Retail or customer service experience (bonus if it’s in wine!).

• Comfort using a cash register and handling cash/credit transactions.

• A reliable, self-motivated work ethic and flexibility to work early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays as needed.

• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and be on your feet for most of your shift.

THE VIBE

We work in a fun, fast-paced environment with lots of customer interaction and the occasional wine tasting (ok, maybe more than occasional). Expect a mix of hustle, heart, and collaboration—with plenty of opportunity to learn and grow along the way.
