Cannabis Evening Part Full Time Sales Associate For Retail Cannabis Store Jobs

About us

Did you know Trove is locally owned and operated?

Since we opened our doors in 2015 we have always strived to provide three things to Bellingham, WA: A great place to work, an exceptional selection of quality cannabis products and legendary customer service. Our interior design and layout has a boutique feel and we spent a lot of time crafting a unique brand for Trove Cannabis. These details often lead people to believe that we are a chain. While we often dream of having another location, the truth is, our Bellingham, WA store located on Samish Way is our one and only store. It was conceptualized and brought to life by people who grew up in the PNW, live in Bellingham, WA and attended local schools like Western Washington University and Whatcom Community College. Now that’s what we call a local business!

At Trove we believe in serving our local community. We also believe that having quality, knowledgeable team members is the first step to doing this. That is why we take our time with the hiring process. We strive to ensure that the next addition to our staff not only has strong experience in a retail environment, but will also treat our customers with kindness and respect. We offer all our team members on the job training and carefully crafted coaching so that they can go on the floor and provide professional knowledge about the cannabis industry and represent our business’ values at the same time.

After our amazing team members, the next most important thing is offering an exceptional selection of quality products. We believe our store is one of a kind in that we have the widest selection of any store in Bellingham, WA. Our selection is always changing, and the industry is always changing. We are excited to continue to provide quality products that were born right here in the great state of Washington.

Finally, Trove is known for our legendary customer service. By treating our team members with respect and offering a carefully curated product selection providing great customer service just comes naturally. It is our pleasure to assist our wonderful customers at our location in Bellingham, WA and we look forward to many more years of service!
