Salesperson/Warehouse Manager/Tech-savvy All-Rounder with Gardening Expertise
Victoria-based company has recently opened a new warehouse and retail showroom in Vancouver.

- Strong computer skills and specific experience using Word & Excel is required.
- Experience working with ecommerce sites required - it is a significant part of the job. Shopify experience is preferred.
- Basic proficiency with social media platforms, primarily Instagram and Facebook.

2. a minimum of 2 references; one must be related to horticulture or farming, and;
3. a letter outlining your qualifications, experience, and interest in the position.
