Best Part-Time Customer Care & Office Operations Job Ever

Let’s rip off the Band-Aid:

  • Pay is $15/hour. Perfect for extra cash, not to bankroll a household.
  • Hours are 20–25/week, Monday–Friday, with some flexibility (we secretly love 10–2).
  • You’ll be in person at our Fountain Inn shop. Pajama Zoom jobs are great, but this isn’t one.

If that didn’t scare you off, keep reading, because this just might be the most fun office job you’ll ever have.

 

Who We Are

We’re Southern Crafted Shutters, a small-but-mighty shop in Fountain Inn making the best shutters around (seriously, look around on our website and check out our social media and you’ll see).

We’re biased, but we think we’re the coolest place to work. The vibe is casual, a little chaotic in the best way, and way more fun than any corporate cubicle. Sometimes the grill comes out for mid-day cookouts, we toss in surprise gift cards, and we’ve been known to randomly end up bowling, mini-golfing, or escape-rooming as a team.

 

The Job

Every day is different. Some days you’re answering emails and phone calls, creating invoices, or scheduling crates. Other days you’re posting on social media, helping with shop projects, calling clients, or turning one of Kristin’s wild ideas into reality. Basically: part customer champion, part office hero, part shop sidekick, part chaos-tamer.

This job isn’t for everyone. You’ll love it if:

  • You’re a doer. Lists are your jam. You hate seeing things half-done.
  • You’re organized, but flexible enough to roll with last-minute changes.
  • You’re resourceful. Hand you a messy idea? You’ll figure out how to make it real.
  • You’re detail-minded. Typos, wrong dates, or missing info bug you enough to fix them.
  • You’re team-oriented. “How can I help?” comes naturally to you. Past colleagues have never heard “that’s not my job” come out of your mouth.
  • You’re a problem solver. When a client doesn’t know exactly what they need, you thrive on figuring out the perfect solution.

Basically, we have plenty of big ideas and we need you to help tame them and make them happen.

 

The Environment

Our office is inside the shop. Translation: sometimes warm, sometimes chilly, sometimes perfect with the bay doors open. The office itself has A/C and heat, but this isn’t a cushy corporate cube. You’ll want a hoodie in winter and shorts in summer.

We’re casual, fun, and sometimes a little goofy. We’ve been known to play trivia games while eating pizza, do crazy dances or skits for social media, and give each other sh!t when deserved. And, sometimes we curse. You don’t have to, but you shouldn’t clutch your pearls if someone drops an f-bomb.

 

The Requirements

  • Creating an amazing customer experience makes you do cartwheels (even if you just do them in your head)
  • Comfortable with email + phone customer service.
  • Basic computer skills (Excel, Outlook, Google -we’ll be extra impressed if you know QuickBooks, too). Two screens = bliss.
  • A balance of independence + collaboration. Some days it’s headphones in, list grinding; some days it’s teamwork. Every day, it’s making sure clients are appreciated.
  • Creative enough to help with social posts, reels, or stories, but disciplined enough to stay on-brand.
  • Committed to quality. Fast is good, sloppy is not.

 

How to Apply

If this is a job that gets you so excited that you would even do it for free, we would totally accept that offer from you. But if you prefer compensation (and we totally get it…we prefer getting paid as well) this is what we offer: This is a part time, manufacturing environment office job. The pay is $15 an hour and the hours will be 20-25 a week at our Fountain Inn facility.

In addition to being a detailed person, you must follow systems and processes. In fact, just to prove that you are detail oriented and can follow procedures, when you apply for this position by email (to team@scshutters.com) you must include “I’ve found my peeps” in the subject line. Yep, that’s our little trick to sort out the people who blanket send their resume to anyone and everyone, from the folks (that’s you) who are truly interested in this position.

We are looking to bring our new colleague on board as soon as possible, but we will spend the necessary time to find the best fit both in abilities and culturally. (We are looking for our Cinderella story – where the shoe just slides on without any force). Want a leg up? Send a short video with your application (in fact, everyone who works here did this). In your video, tell us why you think you’re perfect for this job and why you will rock this position. Everyone on our team makes weekly videos for clients, so it’s a chance to show us your personality and lets us know why you are our Cinderella.

 

TL;DR

We don’t need another big idea person. We need a problem solver.  A person who thinks outside the box to get things done.

We need you, the one who gets stuff DONE.

If that sounds like your happy place, come join us.

 

We can’t wait to meet you!!!
