Job description:
Freelance | Project-Based | On-Site | Not a Full-Time Position
Grande Properties is a luxury home staging and design company based in New York City, featured on national TV and in top design publications. We specialize in preparing high-end homes for sale with strategic, elevated staging that helps our clients maximize their return.
We're looking for a reliable Staging Assistant to support our staging installations throughout NYC. This is a 1099 contract role, perfect for someone who wants hands-on experience in luxury staging with flexible, project-based work. This is not a full-time or salaried position -hours and availability vary week to week based on active projects.
You'll work directly on-site supporting setup, styling, and removal for active staging projects, helping installations run smoothly and finish polished. This is a great opportunity for someone with residential or design-adjacent experience looking to grow their skills and take on more responsibility over time.
Key Responsibilities:
- Assist with staging installations from setup to styling
- Help move, arrange, and style furniture and decor
- Support inventory organization and breakdown/reset of staging pieces
- Coordinate with building management for access, deliveries, and pickups as needed
- Represent Grande Properties professionally in high-end client environments
You Might Be a Great Fit If You:
- Have some residential experience — staging, interior design, real estate, home retail/merchandising, or a related hands-on field
- Bachelor's degree preferred, but relevant hands-on experience will also be considered
- Are naturally organized, detail-oriented, and solution-focused under pressure
- Have an eye for design or styling
- Are based in NYC and available weekdays
- Are able to lift/move items (up to 15 lbs) and work efficiently on-site
- Have reliable transportation; a valid driver's license is a plus
- Are looking for flexible contract work, not a full-time salaried position
Compensation & Structure:
- $22.00/hour, paid via 1099 (freelance contractor)
- Project-based schedule with flexible work dates
- Opportunities for additional hours during peak seasons
Benefits:
