Role Description | Modsy Designer


Commitment: Full-Time or Part-Time

Location: Telecommute/Remote

Contract Type: 1099 Contractor

Compensation: ~$17 per Hour


Modsy Designers are customer-obsessed and thrive on working one-on-one with their assigned customers to deliver a world-class design experience. Designers guide their customers towards realizing a design they love by creating beautiful photorealistic renders showcasing a curated selection of home furnishing products and finishes.


Manage: Guide customers' remote design experience by tracking project information, ensuring tasks are completed on time, and escalating issues when necessary.


You Have: Superb time and project management abilities - nothing makes you happier than a well-organized calendar!


Communicate: Connect with customers through video calls and messages to learn about their project goals, build relationships, and provide professional design guidance.


You Have: Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to convey information in a clear and compelling manner. You might have the Grammarly extension downloaded on your computer to secretly double-check your work!


Style: Use Modsy’s proprietary 3D styling and rendering technology to create beautiful and functional designs that customers love!


You Have: A technologically savvy mindset with the drive to take the initiative and quickly learn new applications. “Self-taught from YouTube” may be a sentence you’ve repeatedly used to describe yourself!


Select: Choose and recommend home furnishing products curated to meet each customer's functional and stylistic requirements.


You Have: A true passion for design and thinking outside the box - storage solutions, tricky layouts, and inspiration photos are no match for you! You’re receptive to feedback and can’t wait to help customers discover and bring their unique visions to life.


Realize: Ensure customers bring their design vision to life by guiding purchasing decisions, offering expert advice on products, and overcoming any hurdles to their purchasing experience.


You Have: A customer-centric mindset and are always willing to go the extra mile to deliver a delightful client experience. Your favorite part of HGTV design shows is the reveal because you love seeing the joy on people’s faces when they see their beautiful designs come to life!



Scheduling


Full-Time: 40 Hours per Week (max)

Part-Time: 20-30 Hours per Week


As independent contractors, Modsy Designers have flexible scheduling options; however, we request the following to ensure we maintain pipeline efficiency and meet customer expectations.


Commitment: Schedule is consistent (i.e. same days and hours scheduled for work each week) and declared upon invitation to join the Modsy Foundations Program. Modsy Designers are expected to commit to their schedule as stated for at least 3 months (excluding scheduled time off).


Days: Hours scheduled are divided over 5 days each week with 2 days off (Monday - Sunday) regardless of whether the designer is classified as a full-time or part-time contractor.


For example, part-time contractors should plan to work a minimum of 4 hours per day, 5 days a week - not 7 hours per day, 3 days a week.


Hours: Hours scheduled overlap with U.S. standard business hours (9:00 am - 9:00 pm EST) by a minimum of 3 hours per workday. This ensures real-time support is available if needed and allows for customer appointment scheduling.
