We are looking for our next rock star!

If you are looking for a traditional 9-5 job, do not apply. This job opportunity is for those seeking to work in a creative environment in which each day is different, and you never know what exciting opportunity will greet you in the morning! Welcome to the exciting world of home staging and real estate. We are specifically looking for a 2nd driver to join our dynamic logistics team. Duties will mostly involve you driving a 26-box truck 3-4 times a week into Manhattan, unloading, and assembling furniture in tandem with our staging and design team. This is NOT a "mover" position but an opportunity for a hardworking, creative, critical thinker.

We are a small but mighty home staging company looking to add another member to our logistics team. Carpentry skills, touch-up skills, furniture assembly skills, and the ability to hang artwork and mirrors will bring you to the top of our consideration pile. A VALID DOT MEDICAL CARD IS REQUIRED FOR CONSIDERATION.

WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR:

• Has a valid DOT medical card
• Understands furniture assembly, installation, and handling
• Thinks ahead, notices details, and solves problems on site
• Takes pride in clean installs and beautiful results
• Wants steady hours, a professional team, and meaningful work

If you’ve worked in furniture delivery, white-glove installation, carpentry, cabinetry, or high-end logistics, you will feel at home here.

WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO:

• Drive our 26’ box truck 3–4 days per week into Manhattan
• Load and prep furniture from our Highland warehouse
• Work alongside our staging and design team during installations
• Assemble furniture and place pieces with precision
• Hang artwork and mirrors
• Perform light carpentry or touch-ups as needed
• Maintain organization and cleanliness in our warehouse

Every day is different. Every install matters.

• Monday–Friday schedule
• 30–40 consistent hours per week
• Creative, design-driven environment
• Small, respectful, professional team
• High-end Manhattan properties
• You are valued as a skilled specialist — not just a driver

We are a small but mighty team. We work hard. We respect craftsmanship. We expect professionalism. And we treat our team accordingly.
