Best Sites to Find Cannabis Jobs

With cannabis growing fast, so are the career opportunities. We’re going to give you some suggestions on where you can find new opportunities for advancement or help those seeking their first job in cannabis find their first cannabis entry on their resume.

Vangst: The #1 Cannabis-Specific Job Board

If you’re in the industry, you know that Vangst is the leader in cannabis jobs. They've been referred to as the "LinkedIn of cannabis." It’s a dedicated job board where you can find positions ranging from entry-level cultivation to corporate roles. They also offer temporary gigs for those looking to get some hands-on experience.

FlowerHire 

Founded in 2017, FlowerHire is full services agency offering talent and recruiting professionals dedicated to helping cannabis companies.

Careers in Cannabis

Less-known but industry-specific Careers in Cannabis focuses solely on cannabis jobs. It posts everything from budtender positions to compliance officers. The site also provides industry news and training resources to help job seekers stay up to date.

CannabizTeam

I originally missed this, but had one of our subscribers mention this full service cannabis staffing firm. They cover seed-to-sale, full-time to part-time staffing solutions with a handful of cannabis jobs.

Indeed and ZipRecruiter

Of course, we now have general job boards like Indeed and ZipRecruiter, which are great for finding cannabis jobs. You’ll see listings for everything from dispensary roles to management positions. Set up alerts and use cannabis-specific keywords like “budtender”, “seed to sale,” "extraction technician" or "cultivator" to narrow your search.

Government Job Boards

If you’re looking to get into a newly legalized state, check local government sites. For example, New York has a cannabis-specific job page on their Department of Labor website: Finding a Cannabis Job. These sites often post compliance and regulatory jobs.

Company Career Pages

Personally, I feel your best bet is looking for jobs and getting signed up for job alerts with the companies you admire most. Many cannabis companies post jobs directly on their websites. For example:

• Curaleaf Careers: Jobs in cultivation, retail, and corporate.

• Green Thumb Industries: Offers positions in cultivation, marketing, and product development.

• Trulieve: Has corporate, production and retail jobs.

Final Thoughts

Whether you’re already in cannabis pro or just getting started, these sites can connect you with the right opportunities. Use a mix of cannabis-specific boards, mainstream sites, and company pages to land your next gig in the cannabis industry. Just remember, you are more than your resume. You are your network. Nothing is as powerful as old-school networking and reaching out to folks you know in the industry.
