If you love home furnishings and hate sitting behind a desk, have we got a position for you.
You'll get all of your daily steps in while furnishing and decorating amazing homes.
THE JOB
We furnish homes for sale to highlight their best attributes. Our Home Staging Assistant is the entry level of home staging. You'll gather furnishings and accessories from our multiple warehouses, pack accessories in bins, then load them into and out of vans.
There's no moving the big stuff, like sofas and dining tables, we have movers for that. Assistants don't style right out of the gate, so while the styling happens you'll be placing "smalls" (lamps, pillows, accessories), ironing bedding and setting up beds, re-packing unused items, and more.
You and the team will completely furnish a large home in less than day. It's nowhere near back-breaking work but it does require focus and a sense of urgency.
A few weeks (or sometimes a few days) later, we do it all over again in reverse, as we pack up and remove it all. The furnishings are then returned to inventory in the warehouses.
Over time, as your supervisor becomes comfortable, you may get the opportunity to do some styling or help hang art, which can result in a higher hourly pay rate.
The job is quite seasonal and we're past peak season now, so the work will be a day or two each week; some weeks more, some less. Once we get into November, it will be pretty quiet until February. But by April, we'll be at it full-time through July.
Most of our work is on Bainbridge Island, and most of the rest is in North Kitsap. Every now and then, we work in the south county or as far west as Port Angeles.
The job starts at $20/hour with raises dependent on experience and talent.
Requirements: A current driver's license and a reasonably clean driving record. Because you'll be working in people's homes, you will also be subject to a background check.
THE COMPANY
We're the staging leader in our market, staging the high-value homes for many of the top realtors. We have a strong brand and a deep commitment to customer service. While we continuously seek to improve and value new ideas, our method of staging and styling has been quite successful for more than 20 years.
Our company motto is "Work hard, be nice." We prize teamwork, fun, and cooperation. We strive to run a transparent business where you can be yourself.
YOU
Our ideal candidate is:
- Energetic
- Hard working
- Punctual
- Focused
- Can think on their feet and does not panic
- Unfailingly positive
- but not afraid to ask questions and call attention to potential problems
