Aiden & Grace is looking for a skilled and versatile Painter / Fixer / Peak Delivery Lead to support the preparation, maintenance, customization, and delivery of our rental inventory.
This is a specialty role for someone who is comfortable working with their hands and takes pride in making sure our inventory looks its best.

The ideal candidate is resourceful, detail-oriented, mechanically inclined, and able to identify problems and figure out practical solutions. You should be comfortable working independently while also stepping into a leadership role when the delivery schedule demands it.
