Internationalist Books in Chapel Hill seeks vibrant, dedicated  
idealist for a part-time finances coordinator position!

Internationalist Books is a volunteer-run collective, a not-for-profit  
bookstore, a radical community center, and community owned  
cooperative. We provide new and used books and magazines on diverse  
subjects from politics and current events to fiction, specializing in  
hard to find, alternative, underground, small press, independent, and  
nontraditional literature. We also sell sidelines such as  
self-published 'zines, postcards, bumper stickers, spoken word CDs and  
politically oriented T-Shirts.  Read more at  
http://www.internationalistbooks.org.

We are looking to hire a part-part-time coordinator to head up the  
finances and bookkeeping at the store.  Coordinators work three  
three-hour shifts per week, one volunteer and two paid, for a total of  
nine hours per week, and will receive $8/hour for paid shifts.  Please  
note that this is NOT a high-paying job; the compensation is more an  
expression of appreciation for taking on responsibilities of an  
especially dedicated volunteer, NOT a job you can survive on.  All  
coordinators will work together closely to support store operations as  
well as carrying out duties in their individual field of focus.   
Current Internationalist volunteers will be given preference, but all  
applications will be reviewed.  If you're still interested, read on!

All applicants should meet the following qualifications:
-friendly, organized, dependable, and flexible
-able to work as a team, interact with customers, and delegate tasks  
to volunteers
-comfortable with progressive, radical, and controversial political ideas
-able to work at least 3 shifts (9 hours) in the store per week, one  
volunteer and two paid, plus occasional meetings and outside events
- willing to commit to a minimum of 9 months in the position (but the  
longer you can commit, the more competitive of an applicant you'll be!)
-accessible by phone on short notice and living in the area with  
reliable transportation
-experience with volunteer coordination, cooperative workplaces,  
nonprofits, or bookstores is a major plus!
