Canadian cannabis companies have been on the rise recently, and part of that wave includes High Tide, Inc. (High Tide Stock Quote, Chart, News, Analysts, Financials TSXV:HITI). Andrew Semple of Echelon Capital Markets Tuesday reiterated his “Speculative Buy” rating on the company, along with a $20.00/share target price, implying a potential upside of 150 per cent in the next 12 months.

The cannabis industry is officially booming, which any economist will tell you means one thing, job creation. From entry-level positions to scientists and chefs, there’s something for everyone in the up-and-coming cannabis industry. If you were thinking about making a change or looking for a 420-friendly career path then there’s definitely no time like the present.

But, what are the best jobs in the cannabis industry and how do you snag one? Don’t worry, we got you. Sit back, spark up and let us get blunt about the 10 best jobs in the cannabis industry right now.

How fast the cannabis industry is growing is astounding.

It’s managed to thrive through the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the most challenging times in our country’s history.

As a result, business owners are readying themselves for a prosperous future. 

But a flourishing cannabis business is highly dependent on having the right people overseeing different aspects of the company.

Specifically, it’s integral you enlist the support of a financial professional to ensure your company finances are on the right track.

And stay on track as the industry and your company grow. 

It was 2017 and Nevada had just made recreational cannabis legal. As a recruiter for the agricultural industry, I remember thinking to myself: Where are they going to find employees in an industry that does not exist?

This is a tough industry to work in, especially when it’s new and the goalposts keep changing. However, once you gain a fundamental understanding of the industry, you can learn to adapt and build a foundation that can get you through any changes or difficulties that may arise. When it comes to staffing, here are a few things I learned along the way.

Researchers at the University of Washington found that while budtenders were good about educating their customers over the benefits of weed, they didn’t warn them about all the evils that could arise.

Step inside any marijuana dispensary across the United States, and you’ll be greeted by a crew of dedicated budtenders whose job is to sell you weed. The transaction might be similar to other retail experiences you’ve had over the years. They’ll see if they can help you find anything specific. If you’re not sure what you want, the budtender might even ask you some questions and then make some recommendations based on your response.

The burgeoning industry continues to seek diversity among its employees, as evidenced by the opportunities within all cannabis verticals for minority candidates.

With 320,000 full-time cannabis jobs in 2021, legal adult-use cannabis in 17 states and D.C., and medical marijuana in 36 states, the U.S. cannabis industry continues to prove its strength and resiliency.

Job growth for the United States in April 2021 might not have quite matched expectations with a disappointing increase of 266,000 jobs and an unemployment rate rise for the first time since 2020, but executive search and staffing firm Cannabiz Team’s latest Cannabis Industry Salary Guide for Q2 2021 tells a different story for the cannabis market. With 320,000 full-time cannabis jobs in the U.S., the cannabis industry ranks as the fastest-growing industry in America. As cannabis legalization spreads, projections have cannabis hitting $35 billion dollars in sales and providing 500,000 full-time jobs by 2024.

California-based CannabizTeam has released its 2021 salary guide and the data shows that salaries for more than 60 popular positions within the sector have seen a salary bump over the past year.

The guide is focused on the U.S. industry across 36 states and hypothesizes that the sector could support 500,000 full-time jobs and top $35 billion in annual sales within the next three years.

“The cannabis industry proved its strength and resiliency in 2020 and enters 2021 as the fastest-growing industry in the United States,” said Liesl Bernard, CEO of CannabizTeam. The guide relies on proprietary salary data from the CannabizTeam, as well as surveys and independent research.
