Let’s Talk: So You Want To Get A Job In Cannabis?

As the cannabis industry continues to flourish in states where marijuana has been legalized, more and more investors are looking to get into the plant-touching business. And of course with investment comes employment opportunities. We posted on Instagram recently about the diverse multitude of cannabis jobs that are in demand right now. With that in mind, our good friends over at Green Flower have compiled a video series on jobs in cannabis. Featured in the series is none other than our own director of compliance, Dr. Juli Crockett. All the videos are free for your viewing, and if you want a taste of what the series has to offer, check out Juli’s teaser trailer below!

 

“The cannabis industry is in a state of evolution. It is a story that’s being written right now. Who gets to write that story is being decided right now,” Dr. Crockett explains. And she couldn’t be more correct.

From employment, to legislation, to banking, the future of cannabis is being written RIGHT. NOW. If you can think of a job, there is probably that opportunity in the burgeoning cannabis industry. Got a green thumb? Our industry is literally centered around growing plants. More of a numbers type? Companies big and small can always use a capable and savvy accountant. Love traveling internationally? The import-export game (Hello, Canada!) is right there. Love logistics? Cannabis loves supply chain and coordination. Cannabis jobs are right there for the taking and maybe what you really want to do hasn’t even been created yet.

Head on over to Green Flower’s website and watch Juli’s story on what it’s like to be a compliance director (and how she got to where she is). Honestly, take the time to watch all of the videos on cannabis jobs, they are all fantastic.
