WHY THIS JOB MATTERS
Guests walk into Embr Springfield with all kinds of questions. Some know exactly what they want; others are visiting a dispensary for the very first time. As a Dispensary Guest Advisor (you may know the role as a budtender), you make either experience a good one by listening first, explaining options clearly, and handling every transaction by the book.
Havent worked in cannabis before? Strong customer service skills matter more to us than industry experience. Your training is paid, and our team will get you comfortable with our product lineup, our register system, and our store procedures.
