Small interior design studio looking to thoughtfully expand.

We are searching for someone organized, detail-oriented, and genuinely passionate about design- someone who brings a warm, positive energy and enjoys a hands-on, collaborative approach to everyday tasks. Alignment with Studio Mae's aesthetic is a plus.

- Maintain the master office calendar, manage project timelines, order office supplies, and keep studio operations running seamlessly.
- Run local design-related errands (fabric/sample pickups, client deliveries, site visits).
