About MEIRAKO

MEIRAKO is a hands-on jewelry workshop studio where customers create meaningful pieces while learning the jewelry-making process themselves.

We’re looking for a friendly, patient, creative, and reliable Workshop Instructor who enjoys working with people and teaching hands-on activities.

What You’ll Do

Your main responsibility will be hosting MEIRAKO jewelry-making workshops, including:

• Friendship Ring Workshop
• Silver Clay Workshop
• Bezel Ring Workshop
• Couple Band Workshop
• Charm Jewelry Workshop

You’ll guide customers step-by-step through the process, demonstrate jewelry-making techniques, help troubleshoot when needed, and create a warm and memorable experience.

You’ll also help with:

• Preparing and resetting workshop stations
• Basic jewelry finishing and assembly
• Customer service during workshops
• Maintaining a clean and organized studio
• Checking workshop materials and communicating inventory needs
• Occasional retail and order-support tasks

Who We’re Looking For

You do not need previous jewelry-making experience. We will train you.

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Warm, friendly, and comfortable working with customers
• Patient and confident teaching small groups
• Reliable and responsible
• Detail-oriented and organized
• Comfortable learning hands-on technical skills
• Good at following procedures and safety guidelines
• Able to communicate clearly with customers and teammates
• Comfortable using small tools and working with their hands
• Available for a combination of weekday, weekend, and evening shifts

Experience in customer service, hospitality, teaching, workshops, jewelry, crafts, or retail is an asset, but not required.

Why Join MEIRAKO?

You’ll learn hands-on jewelry-making skills while helping customers create pieces that are meaningful to them. You’ll work in a creative environment, receive full workshop training, and have opportunities to learn additional jewelry techniques as you grow with the team.

Most importantly: jewelry-making experience is NOT required. We’re looking for the right personality, reliability, and willingness to learn.

I think this will attract better candidates for what you actually need in Edmonton. Given the issues you've had recently, I would prioritize reliability, attention to detail, communication, and ability to follow SOPs over someone who simply says they're creative.
