Department: Interior Design / SIMPLESTYLED
Reports to: Design Team
Location: Phoenix, AZ
Employment Type: Part-time

Position Summary

We are seeking a creative, detail-oriented individual to support our Interior Design team and SIMPLESTYLED service through the styling and installation phases of projects. This is a part-time, project-based position based in Arizona with occasional travel.

You must be self-directed, highly organized, and possess exceptional styling skills with a refined design eye. The Stylist & Install Assistant collaborates with our design team to stage and install décor and accessories, ensuring every project reflects our signature Organic Desert Living® aesthetic.

This role combines hands-on work (install days, styling, errands) with behind-the-scenes coordination (prep, sourcing, and set-up) — helping bring our design visions to life from concept to completion.

Key Responsibilities

• Assist the design team during installations by unloading, moving, unpacking, and organizing décor, art, greenery, textiles, bedding, and accessories.

• Prepare for installs by creating binders, cleaning guides, and printed design boards.

• Execute hands-on styling — arranging pillows and throws, hanging art, curating vignettes, and refining spatial layouts to align with the design vision.

• Collaborate with the team to ensure smooth installations, from setup to final cleanup.

• Be a team player — “YES” is the answer, “WHAT” is the question.

• Maintain and organize accessory inventories, styling kits, and décor storage while tracking returns and damages.

• Support behind the scenes by assisting with photo shoot prep, social media, and marketing styling as needed.

• Communicate effectively with designers, vendors, and contractors to ensure timelines and details are met.

• Take ownership of assigned tasks and demonstrate accountability through follow-up and execution.

• Uphold the firm’s brand, values, and design aesthetic through all interactions and on-site work.

Skills & Qualifications

While this outlines the core qualifications, all team members are expected to be hands-on and willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done and help the company thrive.

• Proven experience in home décor styling — ideally in interior design, retail, or a similar creative environment.

• Strong visual eye with sensitivity to scale, texture, layering, and composition.

• Physical capability to lift, move, and position furnishings and décor items; comfortable working on-site and under deadlines.

• Highly organized with strong time-management and multitasking abilities.

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; able to collaborate seamlessly with designers, vendors, and clients.

• Detail-oriented — every element placed with intention to create a polished, cohesive result.

• Valid driver’s license and reliable vehicle.

• Flexible availability for early mornings, travel, or extended install days.

• Positive, team-focused attitude with a great sense of humor.

• Eat, sleep, and breathe Organic Desert Living®.

• Boundless energy, creativity, and a drive to see tasks through with excellence.

• And last but not least… a complete Styling ROCKSTAR! 🤘

Preferred Experience

• Accessory styling, home staging, or décor installation experience.

• Familiarity with current design trends and trade vendors.

• Comfortable with basic digital tools (spreadsheets, photo documentation, inventory management).

• Thrives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and can adapt quickly on install days.

What to Expect

• A mix of office/prep work and on-site styling and installation days.

• A hands-on role where you’ll help bring design concepts to life in their final, tangible form.

• Collaboration with a passionate team of designers, vendors, and clients under real-world timelines.

• The satisfaction of seeing a finished space that reflects your care, creativity, and attention to detail.
