A unique full-time opportunity in Victoria, BC
Hands-on work | Room for innovation | Small & dynamic team | Role growth potential
Puzzle Lab is a growing boutique wood jigsaw puzzle company with an underlying passion for art, innovation, and creativity. More than that, we're a friendly group of open-minded humans working together to create joyful experiences for our fans and customers. We pride ourselves in our consistent efforts towards environmental sustainability, support of local artists, and an ethical business model. We’re seeking a solid, like-minded individual to join our small team, grow with us, and help us shape the future of the Lab. Could it be you?
Job Description
As one of only 3 people working in the micro-factory at any given time, you'll have the unique opportunity to learn and practice just about every aspect of the puzzle-making process. From determining which puzzles to make next to working on the actual production line (cutting prints, taking puzzles apart, etc) and shipping & fulfilling orders, you'll be exposed to almost every piece of the puzzle-making process - with the exception of operating the laser cutters (bonus if you're curious about learning those as well). This role offers a unique blend of hands-on tasks and higher-level production flow management.
Who You Are
You're competent, self-motivated, and you love the idea of working closely with a small team on a sweet product line. Maybe you're quirky, maybe you're an artist of some kind. You're detail-oriented and good with your hands. You loved arts and crafts as a child, and secretly (or not), you still do. You communicate clearly, both verbally and in writing. You're a natural problem-solver and enjoy thinking about ways to make things run more smoothly. You're not afraid to get your hands dirty (literally - but don't worry, it's just laser dust and it does wash off). You're disenchanted with the idea of a sterile corporate working environment, and prefer a more casual & honest vibe.
Why the Lab?
Puzzle Lab offers a super unique working culture and we're excited to share that with the right person.
We're creatives, designers, musicians and photographers, and we're deeply connected to various facets of Victoria's artistic scene. We are passionate, compassionate, and care deeply about what we do.
If it's not clear by now, we're looking for someone who is more than just an employee. We're looking for a teammate who shares our passion for creativity, making, and innovation. If you're the right fit, you'll have the opportunity to grow with us, shaping not only our puzzles but also our little company's big future.
