EMBER IS HIRING 💼

✨ Part-Time Depop & Resale Assistant (Minneapolis Area: In-Person → Hybrid)

I’m looking for a reliable, trustworthy assistant to help support the resale side of my business, primarily through my Depop shop and related organization. This role focuses on photographing, listing, organizing, and shipping items, along with some light social media and administrative support related to resale. A girl just has too many things and clothes, and I need help managing it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ My bins are full!

Because this position is posted directly on my site, you'll see I'm an independent companion. This role, however, is focused on the resale and organizational side of my brand, not client bookings or related communication.

This position will be in-person to start, with the potential to transition to hybrid over time. It is temporary at first, with the possibility of becoming ongoing if the role is a good fit and my business continues to grow. The initial goal is to get my Depop fully set up and running smoothly; from there, the role may expand, evolve, or conclude depending on needs and value alignment.

Schedule, Structure & Details

• Part-time, temporary to start, approximately 10-20 hours per week during the initial setup and upload phase

• Typically 2–4 days per week, flexible based on your availability

• After the initial upload phase is complete, hours may reduce to 1–2 shorter days per week focused on shipping, inventory upkeep, and occasional support

• In-person initially, with potential hybrid flexibility over time

• Pay discussed based on experience ($25–$40/hour, likely cash)

• The role may remain ongoing in a lighter capacity or expand depending on business growth and the value the position brings

What you’ll help with

• Photographing and uploading items to my Depop Shop or similar platforms

• Writing descriptions and helping price listings

• Packaging and shipping sold items

• Inventory tracking and organization

• Handling basic email communication related to resale customers

• Assisting with social media posts related to resale items

• Light administrative organization (spreadsheets, tracking, sorting)

• Occasional errands or in-person support

• Very occasional casual photos of me when we’re already out together (non-client, non-admin)

Requirements

• Must be a Minnesota resident

• Must be able to reliably travel to the southern suburbs of Minneapolis–St. Paul (I am located south of the cities, within ~15-20 minutes of the Mall of America)

• Valid driver’s license, car, insurance, and proof of all three.

  The car requirement may be flexible if you live very nearby and can drive/have a clean driving record.

• A newer phone with a strong camera capable of taking clean, well-lit product photos (or a real camera if photography is your thing)

• Punctual, dependable, and highly organized

• Honest, trustworthy, and able to maintain discretion

• Comfortable occasionally working with me at my apartment, photo studios, or running errands

• Comfortable assisting with social media content related to resale

• Must be comfortable working in an environment where adult content and very occasional nudity may be present as part of professional work.

• Seeking a woman or non-binary person (I am a woman)

Relevant Experience

Relevant experience may include (but is not limited to): resale platforms such as Depop, Poshmark, or eBay; personal or administrative assistant roles; inventory or fulfillment work; smartphone or beginner product photography; managing or assisting with social media accounts; or supporting an independent or creative business.

Reliability, discretion, integrity, and good judgment matter more to me than formal credentials.

If available, please include links to relevant work (Depop shop, Instagram, website, or sample photos) so I can get a sense of your experience and visual style.

A Few Additional Notes

I’m generally kind, relaxed, understanding (and a stoner), but I also value professionalism and clear boundaries. I’m looking for someone who can work comfortably within that balance and treat this as a real, respectful role.

Because of the nature of my work and the privacy involved, the selected candidate will be required to sign a standard non-disclosure agreement (NDA) before beginning the role.

If this sounds aligned, please email me with a brief introduction, your relevant experience, confirmation that you meet the listed requirements, and your general availability.

The hiring process will involve two short in-person meetings so we can both get a sense of fit and discuss the role further. A final decision will be made after those meetings. 😊

Talk to you soon,
🖤 Ember
