Retail Fashion Buyer Full Time

Buyer - Uptown Cheapskate

Do you live and breathe fashion, and have an eye for trends and brands? Uptown Cheapskate values friendly, helpful customer service above all else. If you have a passion for fashion, great deals, and creating positive shopping experiences, join our team! We're a buy, sell, trade clothing store for young adults offering mall and luxury brands at up to 80% off regular retail prices. We aim to make fashion more sustainable by giving life to gently used clothes that aren't being worn anymore.

As a Buyer, you have the final say on our entire store's inventory, requiring a sharp eye for current fashion trends and high-end brands to determine what we purchase and sell. Crucially, you often provide the initial customer interaction, making it your responsibility to greet sellers cheerfully and clearly explain our selling process. Your role involves evaluating submitted clothing for style and quality (ensuring no defects) and then respectfully presenting an offer, regardless of whether we purchase any items. Provide exceptional customer service that goes above and beyond: greeting everyone with a smile, including explaining the selling process, and enthusiastically assisting them with their needs.

Sort, evaluate and purchase gently used clothing, shoes, and accessories from customers using our computer system.

Although your primary focus will be evaluating and purchasing clothing, it is still important to learn the other aspects of the store and will be asked to: process new inventory (tagging, sensoring, hanging), tidy and organized store, manage fitting rooms, operate cash registers, answer phone, make fun posts on social media.

A genuine passion for providing outstanding and friendly customer service.
