What you'll be doing:
Three to four days a week, you'll drive our 26' box truck from our warehouse in Highland, NY into Manhattan, then work alongside our design team to transform high-end properties into magazine worthy spaces. The other days you'll be back at the warehouse prepping and organizing for the next install.
