Home Staging Assistant (Bainbridge Island)

If you love home furnishings and hate sitting behind a desk, have we got a position for you! You'll accomplish your daily steps goal while helping to furnish and decorate amazing homes. THE JOB We furnish homes for sale to highlight their best attributes. Our 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. But you and the team will completely furnish a large home in less than day. It's nowhere near back-breaking work, but it is physical. We think the degree of exertion is similar to that of a caterer: moving bins of material and being on your feet for most of the day. 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. A few weeks later (or sometimes a few days), we do it all over again in reverse, as we pack up and remove everything. The furnishings are gathered and loaded into our vans, 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, you'll be full-time through August/September. Most of our work is on Bainbridge Island, and the rest is in Kitsap County. The job starts at $22/hour with raises dependent on your reliability, work ethic, and talent. Requirements: A current driver's license, and a reasonably clean driving record, so you can drive our vans. 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 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 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 and reliable - Can think on their feet and does not panic - Unfailingly positive - ...but not afraid to ask questions and call attention to potential problems INTERESTED?
