Berea Farmers Market is Hiring!
The Berea Farmers Market is accepting applications for a new Market Manager. Our farmers market is structured as a cooperative, and we're deeply committed to providing a space mutually beneficial to our farmers, artisans, and the community we serve. We're a producer-only market, offering fresh, local food and high quality arts and crafts--as well as being a place where education, entertainment, and community development naturally occur. The role of the Market Manager is crucial to the ongoing success of the market, and we're excited to meet the people in our community who are passionate about this work and the potential of stepping into the position.
Primary duties of the Market Manager include the day-to-day management of the market, both on-site during market hours and off-site in the execution of administrative tasks, communications, etc. The manager reports to the Board of Directors, who (with the input of the Cooperative membership) set market policy. The manager serves in many ways as the face of the market, representing the market to the vendors, customers, and larger community.
Other duties as mutually agreed upon by the Board of Directors and the manager.
This is an independent contractor position averaging 12 - 15 hours a week at a rate of $11 an hour.
Please send your resume and cover letter to bfmhiring@gmail.com. Your cover letter should introduce you to the board and give us a sense of why you're interested in this position. Thank you!
