Description

Job Summary:

Saybrook Home is actively looking to hire and bring on top talent to continue to grow our already talented Sales Team.

We want to discuss whether you have ever considered a career in furniture/Home Decor.

We have been located at 2 Main Street, Old Saybrook, CT, for 47 years, growing from 4,500 sqft to 45,000 sqft, and now proudly opening a 2nd location/Design center in Glastonbury, CT.

We are an all-encompassing design house, offering a large selection of American-made furniture, custom window treatments, Hunter Douglas shades, hand-knotted rugs, broadloom carpeting, home décor, and even name-brand apparel, partnering with Mahi Gold Apparel.

We believe in the philosophy of "Living your best life" and that you should never compromise on quality.

A significant plus is attention to detail, technical skills, knowledge, or background working with custom furniture, rugs, window treatments, and home decor.

The ability to create a quarter-scale floor plan or measure for custom window treatments would allow you to stand out from the crowd.

If you have these skills in your resume, please let us know in a cover letter.

If you do not have these technical skills, do not let that deter you.

If you have ever worked in fashion or the service industry and are looking for a career transition, this could be a perfect role.

We can teach you the technical skills needed to succeed if you have a selling ambition that excels in excellent customer service and the right personality and attitude.

Showroom Retail hours:
