About Bamboletta
Bamboletta Dolls is a handmade doll company that has been creating heirloom-quality dolls for over 20 years. Every doll is thoughtfully designed and handcrafted using natural materials, with a focus on imagination, connection, and meaningful play.
We are a small creative business with customers around the world. This is not a corporate environment. You’ll be working directly with me, the founder in our Vancouver studio filled with dolls, fabrics, yarn, creativity, and the day-to-day realities of running a handmade business.
About the Role
I’m looking for a reliable, organized, and proactive Studio Assistant to help support the daily operations of Bamboletta.
This is a varied position that combines practical studio work, customer support, packing orders and organizing shipping, website maintenance, and creative business support. No two days are exactly the same.
The ideal candidate enjoys small business environments, pays attention to details, and takes initiative when they see something that needs doing. This is a really lovely job where you actually get to make people happy.
