Store Associate
Part Time and Full Time · New Orleans, Louisiana
ABOUT MARQUET SHOPPE
Located in a restored historic building on Magazine Street in New Orleans, Marquet was envisioned by Founder & Interior Designer, Jenny Vorhoff. Marquet is built on a simple belief: that shopping for your home should feel like discovery. Every product is hand-sourced and thoughtfully edited, from vintage furniture and artisan textiles to tabletop treasures and everyday objects worth loving. In a world of fast fashion and mass production, Marquet takes the long way around, seeking out the exceptional, the storied, and the singular.
THE ROLE
We're looking for a Store Associate who brings warmth, energy, and genuine care to every customer who walks through our doors. This is a hands-on, floor-focused role for someone who takes pride in a beautifully kept space and enjoys helping people find exactly the right thing. You're reliable, attentive, and always ready to pitch in.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Customer Experience
- Welcome every visitor with a warm, unhurried, discovery-led approach that defines the Marquet experience.
- Help customers find what they're looking for, answer questions, and assist with purchases at checkout. Handle customer inquiries and requests with graciousness and efficiency.
- Be a consistent, energizing presence on the sales floor, including weekends.
Store Floor and Presentation
- Maintain the visual integrity of each room: product placement, cleanliness, and display always to standard.
- Keep the store tidy and welcoming throughout the day — straightening displays, dusting, and resetting as needed.
- Support restocking and replenishment on the floor so shelves always look their best.
Operations Support
- Assist with day-to-day store operations including opening and closing procedures, POS, and cash handling.
- Support inventory processes: receiving, tagging, and restocking product.
- If you see something that needs doing, you do it. No task is beneath you. We all have a “sweep the floors” mentality.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Prior customer-facing experience and an appreciation of aesthetics.
- A genuine passion for home, product, and thoughtful presentation.
- A scrappy, can-do attitude: you notice what needs doing and you do it.
- Exceptional reliability.
- Weekend availability.
- A positive, collaborative spirit and genuine pride in the work.
THE DETAILS
- Part Time and Full Time. Reports to the Store Director.
- Based in-store on Magazine Street, New Orleans. Opening September 2026.
- Weekend availability preferred.
If you are someone who finds joy in a beautifully made object, takes pride in a perfectly set table, and believes that a well-run shop is its own kind of art, we'd love to hear from you.
Please send your resume and a brief note to hello@marquetshoppe.com.
