We're Hiring!
We're always expanding our team at Briar and we're looking for the right people to join our "family" and grow with us.
Our full production studio is location in downtown Vancouver, Washington, just across the river from Portland, Oregon. Check out the available positions below, and let us know if you think we're a good fit!

Production Team Member: Support/Finisher
Briar Baby is seeking a few new full-time production team members to assist us with our mask production. Usually, we make bonnets (but you probably already knew that). But we saw the dire need in our communities, and knew we had the capability to make a protective mask that was effective (and beautiful).
Briar Baby's production team is now 100% focused on making masks (instead of bonnets), and we're seeking a few new full-time production team members to help us make as many masks as we can to serve our communities. Please note that this is a full-time, temporary position; opportunities to stay on as a long-term employee may be available, but not guaranteed.
Work will be onsite at the Briar Production Studio; work-from-home positions are not available at this time. We are taking precautions for the safety of our employees while COVID-19 continues to affect our community. Masks are provided for employees, and are required while in the building. Employees must wash hands upon entering the building, and are encouraged to wash their hands frequently throughout the day. Work stations are positioned 6 feet apart and distancing is encouraged in all situations. Work station and frequently used areas are sanitized throughout the day.
If you are are interested in applying, please send your resume (or email detailing your experience) and we will be in touch with qualified candidates!
