We're looking for the right person to join our team, as soon as August 2. This is not a full-time position or guarantee of permanent part time work as we currently have work lined up through November, so we're looking for someone available on that timeline. Things are heating up so that will likely just move through next year.
This role isn't for everyone. It takes someone who's comfortable working with fabric and confident measuring with a tape measure. If that's not you, please don't apply — we're looking for serious candidates only.
We may also consider a paid internship for the right candidate looking to put hours toward on-the-job experience.
How to Apply
Please submit your application with a resume or work sample attached. Applications submitted without an attachment will not be considered unless you include a link to your work — either an Instagram handle or a website — so we can see examples of what you've done.
Disclaimer: Submitting an application does not guarantee an interview or offer of employment. Deez Mats and Such reviews applications on a rolling basis and will only contact candidates who are being considered for the role. This posting does not constitute a contract or promise of employment, and the position's start date, hours, and duration are subject to change based on business needs.
