Job Description

Who we are:
In 1998, we were stuck behind desk jobs we didn’t like … and we were miserable. So we quit. We tossed out business suits for bathing suits, got our wisdom teeth pulled while we still had coverage and signed up for every credit card we could. On the same day, within ten minutes of each other, we walked out of our jobs, grabbed a drink and started chasing the American Dream. Twenty years in and some things have changed, but we’re the same at our core. We’re still having a ton of fun, hanging with Real Good People, and sharing the gift of the Vineyard with everyone we can.

Who you are:
With a love for our brand, a drive to learn, and a passion for an “every day should feel this good” store experience, you’ll help build a fun and inclusive store culture for our Crew with a focus on driving results. As an ambassador of the brand, you’ll think of new ways to evolve your business through connecting with your customers and community. You’ll lead the Crew in the absence of the Store Manager with transparency, while coaching and inspiring them to drive results through engagement and accountability.
