Interested in joining the team at Knifewear? We aren't currently looking to fill a position in the shops right now but are always looking to meet cool people who think they would enjoy working with us.
Our shops are currently in Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto, and Vancouver, and you can be a part of our growth and future. We're looking for people interested in offering our customers real hospitality. If you appreciate earnest craftsmanship, have a passion for quality, hard work and can connect with people, please apply. Restaurant Experience is an asset but not necessary. At Knifewear, we are a store about cooking. We believe great tools make better food. We believe things should work and be built to last. We believe you can fall in love with your knife. Handmade Japanese kitchen knives are usable works of art and buying a knife should be a great day. We change customer's minds by creating a new shopping experience.
We want to make this a great place to work and our staff stay with us for years because it's a job you can love. We have a strong training program that will teach you our brand of service. You will also learn a tonne about knives, steel, cooking, food, and drink. You will become an amazing knife sharpener. Most of all, you will get to be a part of a team that enjoys their job and contribute to running a successful business.
Our favourite type of people are:
- Able to balance creativity and action.
- Driven to contribute. The kind of person who brings solutions to problems.
- Interested in learning and being in charge of your success.
- Be personable and engaging.
- Help customers in decision making
We want to challenge the status quo and destroy classic retail. Retail can be a rewarding career and customers should feel more than “Satisfied”. We say that work should be enjoyable and help improve your life. Customers should buy things that help them enjoy their lives while having fun. We build community through our store and events that gather people who enjoy food, cooking and hand crafted tools. Most of all we like to go above and beyond.
Go ahead and attach a cover letter that gives us an idea of who you are, your career intentions and why you'd choose Knifewear along with a current resume.
We'll be in touch!
