We're hiring!
Join our team as a Professional Organizer
We bring joy and ease to our clients’ lives through organization of their homes and moves.
Our clients are young parents managing households with small children, seniors downsizing from their lifelong homes into memory care, and everyone in between.
We work in new homes and old homes of all sizes, types, and conditions, with clients of all ages, genders, sexes, races, religions, income levels, and abilities.
Many of our clients call on us during challenging periods in their lives. Some may be unable to keep up with their homes because of medical conditions, the arrival of a child, or a sudden influx of “stuff” after the passing of a family member. Others are moving from a different state, starting a new job, renovating, combining households…or all of the above!
Our clients are lovely people who need direction, accountability, project management, encouragement, permission, and/or physical help. We build relationships with our clients, and we support them with our expertise, optimism, energy, humor, and compassion.
No two days are the same. You will be exposed to many different types of projects from basement cleanouts to high-end moves. We make an effort to match you to projects and clients that best suit your personality, location, and talents. That said, you will be expected to work on projects of all varieties.
Regardless of the project, you will find the work tiring and rewarding, and you’ll sleep well at night knowing you made a difference in someone’s life.
This is a year-round, part-time, as-needed position. Ideally you will be available to work up to, on average, 20 hours per week, Monday through Friday. Hours are not guaranteed.
