Careers at Northwest Cannabis Company
Join the Adventure — Become part of a thriving team focused on our amazing customers and improving the community we live in!
Cannabis Consultant (Budtender)
Bridgeport (Tualatin) · Tanasbourne (Beaverton) · Oregon owned and operated
Explorers walk into our stores every day looking for something new. As a Cannabis Consultant you are their guide: you know the trail, you listen first, and you help each customer, from first-timer to expert, find what fits their lifestyle and needs. You will be part of a collaborative team inside Oregon’s cannabis superstore, with a community-minded company behind you. We value outstanding customer service and careful attention to compliance in equal measure: both are part of every sale.
What you’ll do
- Greet every customer warmly and help them find the right products, with no pressure and no judgment.
- Explain products, potency, consumption methods and effects in plain language, and answer questions honestly.
- Check IDs and follow Oregon (OLCC) rules for every sale, every time. Compliance is a core focus of this job, and we take it seriously.
- Run the register accurately, handle cash and card payments, and sign customers up for our loyalty program.
- Keep the sales floor, displays and product stocked, clean and organized.
- Learn new products and share what you know with teammates.
- Pitch in when we host store and community events. You may be asked to help with setup, working the event and teardown, sometimes outside regular store hours.
- Represent the company well, in the store and out in the community.
