💚 DORKY DESIRES IS HIRING! 💚

We’re looking for a new part-time team member to join the chaos

If you love community focused retail, thrive in fast paced environments, and don’t mind a little organised chaos, we’d love to hear from you.

To apply, send an email with the following to [email protected]
• Your resume
• A cover letter telling us about yourself, your availability & why you’d be a great fit for Dorky’s

Retail experience is required, but card shop experience isn’t (we can teach the nerd stuff)

Check the post for full details, requirements & application info.

No cover letter = no progression.

Immediate start available.

Happy 28th Birthday to Sarrin fam!!!
She’s the heart of Dorky’s and the whole reason we pushed past the “what if” & took the leap to create what Dorky’s is today.

From a wild dream to the amazing community we have now, so much of this exists because of her love, courage and belief in us. ✨

Love you, Saz 🫶🏻✨
Hope you have the most special day, you deserve it.
