About The Empress & Wolf

The Empress & Wolf is a unique independent retail business specialising in crystals, gems, jewellery, tarot and oracle cards, spiritual books, mystical homewares and products that support self-exploration, healing and empowerment.

We're a woman-owned and neurodivergent-owned small business, and we're passionate about creating a welcoming,



inclusive space where people can explore their interests and feel genuinely supported.

This isn't a role for someone who wants to stand behind a counter waiting for customers to approach them.

We're looking for a sales superstar who is comfortable being proactive, starting conversations, understanding what a customer needs and creating a genuinely memorable retail experience.

What we’re looking for

A strong work ethic and proven retail/sales experience

You need to be someone who understands retail, knows how to provide excellent customer service and takes pride in doing a job well.

Reliability and consistency are extremely important to us.

Excellent people skills

You genuinely enjoy people.

You're confident approaching customers, starting conversations with people you don't know and making them feel welcome.

You're warm and engaging without being pushy, and you understand that great sales come from listening to customers and helping them find what they're actually looking for.

Independence and initiative

We're a small business, so you need to be comfortable working independently.

You can look around, see what needs doing and get on with it.

You're capable of thinking on your feet, making sensible decisions and handling unexpected situations calmly.





Solid communication and attention to detail

You communicate clearly and professionally with customers and the team.

You're organised, detail-oriented and consistent, particularly when handling transactions, customer information, stock and administrative tasks.

Confidence with technology

You'll need to be comfortable using:

- Point of Sale systems
- Gmail
- Google Calendar
- Basic data entry systems

Experience with retail POS systems is essential.

Your responsibilities will include

- Providing warm, engaging and knowledgeable customer service
- Proactively approaching customers and creating genuine conversation
- Helping customers find products that suit their needs, interests and budget
- Educating customers about our products and services
- Driving sales through excellent service rather than pushy sales tactics
- Operating our Point of Sale system
- Processing sales and assisting with laybys
- Following established processes for returns and refunds
- Gmail and Google Calendar administration
- Data entry and maintaining accurate records
- Labelling products once pricing and coding has been completed
- Merchandising and helping curate beautiful, engaging product displays
- Keeping the store organised, clean and inviting
- Working independently when required
- Thinking on your feet and resolving problems appropriately
- Communicating clearly with customers and the team
- Eventually opening and closing the store independently

Experience and interests that would be a bonus

We'd love to hear from you if you also have:
