Searching for new birds for our nest

Well, after two years, things are getting busy for Bird's Yard and we find ourselves in need of some help, so we have some fantastic opportunities.

1. Saturday part time retail work in Birdshell vintage boutique. We're looking for someone with the following skills

- ideally a retail background
- interest in fashion, particularly vintage but also high fashion and mixing the two
- interest in style
- friendly personality
- good communication skills
- ability to work as a team

This position will be a paid opportunity, with rates to be discussed.

2. Intern positions

We're searching for summer interns with the following personalities

- interest in retail, design, branding, creativity and events
- ability to work as part of a team

The skill areas we're particularly looking for are

- website design, including maintaining, redesign and maybe even building apps for smart phones
- online retail eg building and maintaining a shop
- marketing and advertising
- social media such as twitter, pinterest, Facebook etc
- event planning
- visual merchandising inc window dressing
- general personal assistant responsibilities, such as organisation, communication and problem solving

This is an unpaid opportunity, but as you'll be working closely with the shop you'll be there on the ground floor for new opportunities when they arise, and we can give references, and the kind of advice and opportunities money just can't buy!

This would be perfect for someone wanting to open a shop of their own, or someone looking for something for their cv or college course

To apply for either of these positions, please email michelle@birdsyard.co.uk stating which position you're interested in and what qualities you can bring to the shop.

We look forward to meeting you all!
