Part Time Manager - Crew Lead - North Water St, Edgartown, MA

Who we are:

In 1998, we were stuck behind desk jobs we didn’t like … and we were miserable. So we quit. We tossed out business suits for bathing suits, got our wisdom teeth pulled while we still had coverage and signed up for every credit card we could. On the same day, within ten minutes of each other, we walked out of our jobs, grabbed a drink and started chasing the American Dream.

Twenty years in and some things have changed, but we’re the same at our core. We’re still having a ton of fun, hanging with Real Good People, and sharing the gift of the Vineyard with everyone we can.

We are looking for charismatic, high‑energy individuals who want to bring the “Everyday should feel this good” vibe to life on the sales floor. From the moment you walk in the door, you’ll slip into the good life mentality and effectively coach, train, and develop the team into being the ultimate Brand Ambassadors. With a focus on community, you’ll identify opportunities as they arise within and outside your four walls, work side by side with the management team to ensure each customer interaction is unique and perfectly tailored, and support store leadership in strategic managerial tasks that help run one of our retail locations.

This role is designed to leverage your leadership skills while continuing to develop, teach, and harness your potential as a good life guide.

In addition to your role responsibilities, you will be asked to take on a Division of Responsibility (DOR).
