Jeweler Positions

FLORIDA PANHANDLE
Job security important to you?  How about working for a company that is in its 67th year of operation with the same family ownership.  Working on the finest high quality jewelry important to you?  How about working working for a company that is an official Rolex jeweler and carries Roberto Coin, Precision Set, S. Kashi & Sons, A Jaffe, Gabriel & Co. to name a few.  Quality of life important to you?  How about living near white sand beaches where the cost of living is less than the national average.  Where housing prices are generally more reasonable than other coastal cities in Florida.  And with no state income tax you keep more of what you make.  If you feel you’re at the master level in repair skills, consider yourself very proficient in stone setting, love a laser, setting scope and having all the tools you need at your disposal…touch base with me on this one!

VIRGINIA
Days off…SATURDAY & SUNDAY!  Work schedule, 9:00 to 5:30 (37.5 hour work week).  Tired of being stuck and stopped in traffic to and from work.  Ready to get away from wall-to-wall people everywhere you look.  How about considering the more laid-back pace of smaller town living, but being close enough to larger cities to enjoy what they offer without dealing with it daily.  If you’re an accomplished jeweler with really good setting skills who likes having a laser, setting scope, GRS graver, and not being pushed for a crazy amount of production, this is one to consider.  Jump off the fast-paced life and jump on the easy slower pace where you can enjoy living for a change.

SOUTH LOUISIANA

Three weeks paid vacation 1st year.  Not many employers offer it…this company does.  Plus a retirement account with immediate enrollment versus a long waiting period.  Add these to a cost of living index of 91.7% when the U.S. average is 100%, and this employer is an attractive option.

Here we’re looking for solid quality bench experience with a strong emphasis on most all venues of stone setting, general to advanced repairs, and good custom design and manufacturing skills (no casting on-site).  The desire and ability to work with customers on custom (counter sketching a big plus), is an important part of the role.  A Tuesday through Saturday work week, and a non-corporate fun atmosphere to work in.

Feel like you’re a good communicator?  Like working with customers on “custom design”?  How about not wanting to be without a laser, bench scope, and all the necessary tools of the trade?  This destination store carries Gabriel & Co, Verragio, Hearts on Fire, Romance, etc., with a heavy focus on bridal pieces.  They use Geller’s blue book, Edge software, and their sales team is trained on shop take-ins.  Nice to have minimal involvement in take-ins…right?

Jeweler hours 9:00 to 5:30, Tuesday through Saturday, you get a smock provided to save your clothes, and better than most they pay 75% of your monthly health insurance premium.  With the U.S. average cost of living at 100, per one comparison site, this area’s cost of living slides in at 76.6.  Might be worth a look here!

TENNESSEE

Minutes from the Appalachian Trail, this store epitomizes living in beautiful country.  Their previous jeweler was with them for 16 years (I placed them there), which says a lot about working for these people and the work environment.  Except for December you get one 3-day weekend off per month, and believe it or not…NO watch batteries!

Not only will the right candidate need to be experienced and comfortable with general to advanced repairs and stone setting jobs, they want this person to embrace and help with the establishment and growth of their in-house custom department.  They outsource their custom now, and really want to bring it in-house.  This is a great opportunity to let your custom juices flow.  There’s a lot of “upside” with this position.  I’m happy to discuss it with you.

SOUTH LOUISIANA

First opened their doors in 1933.  Three generations later they own and operate three fine jewelry stores in south Louisiana.  This company focuses on their shop and its services.  The shop alone represents 20% of the company’s total revenue between repairs and custom in-house manufacturing (they manufacture approximately 40% of their stock merchandise in-house).  This is one of the stores that puts a lot of value and regard in their bench professionals.  Of the four jewelers on staff (at the time of this writing), one has been with the company 20+ years, and another 10+.  Says a lot about the work environment.

LaserStar, bench scope if you want one, and a 9:00 to 6:00 work week (good chance your hours could be Monday through Friday with Saturday and Sunday off).  If you have top stone setting skills, a nice blend of quality and speed in your work, and a passion for your trade, this may be the professional environment you’ve worked hard throughout your career to get to.
