Sales Stylist

Description

Bungalow is seeking a full-time Senior Home Stylist / Design Sales Specialist to serve as a trusted, on-floor design partner for our home furnishings clientele. This is a sales-driven, relationship-based role for someone who can translate a customer’s lifestyle into a well-layered home — and confidently guide them from inspiration to purchase across furniture, lighting, textiles, and décor.

Our clients come to Bungalow expecting more than “retail help.” They want taste, product knowledge, space-planning confidence, and a professional who can make decisions feel easy. If you’re equal parts stylist seller — and you love building rooms, not just ringing sales — we’d love to meet you.

Please share your style aesthetic with us: include your resume plus a list of 12 things you love (brands, materials, places, designers, colors, objects, etc.).

What You’ll Do

Client Experience Design Selling

• Deliver a high-touch, design-forward client experience on the showroom floor—warm, confident, and expertly guided. 
• Build complete rooms and layered vignettes with clients: furniture rugs lighting textiles finishing details.
• Lead consultations that include needs discovery, lifestyle listening, budget alignment, and clear next steps. 
• Create quotes and proposals, manage special orders, and communicate timelines with accuracy and care.
• Follow through after the sale: confirmation, updates, delivery coordination support, and issue resolution when needed.
   

Clienteling Relationship Development

• Proactively build and maintain a book of business through consistent outreach, follow-up, and appointment setting.
• Capture client preferences, projects, and purchase history to create repeat visits and long-term loyalty.
• Partner with designers and local trade clients when applicable, maintaining a polished, professional presence.
   

Sales Performance Floor Leadership

• Consistently meet or exceed individual sales goals while contributing to store-wide performance.
• Stay fluent in key categories and vendors—construction, materials, care, lead times, and “why it’s worth it.”
• Contribute to a strong selling culture: elevate the floor, set the tone, and support teammates in peak moments.
   

Merchandising Presentation Standards

• Maintain showroom excellence: styling, replenishment, recovery, and visual standards that reflect Bungalow’s level.
• Assist with floor moves and product storytelling—making sure displays feel intentional, fresh, and shoppable.
• Support receiving and placement of merchandise with an eye for pacing, grouping, and finish.
   

What We’re Looking For

• A confident design seller who can close while still feeling consultative, relaxed, and client-first.
• Strong taste level and a clear point of view (but not precious) — you can adapt your style to the client.
• Excellent communication skills: you’re clear, composed, and proactive (especially around timelines and expectations).
• Highly organized follow-through: you keep projects moving and details tight without needing reminders.
• Calm problem-solver: you handle concerns with tact, ownership, and a solutions-first mindset.
• Team-minded and standards-driven: you protect the brand experience and help raise the bar for the floor.
   

Requirements

• 3 years experience in luxury retail, home furnishings, design sales, or a related client-facing design role.
• Demonstrated success in a sales environment (commission or goal-based preferred).
• Strong working knowledge of furniture, textiles, finishes, and styling principles (proportion, scale, layering).
• Comfortable with POS systems, quoting/special orders, and basic inventory workflows.
• Available to work a full-time schedule including weekends (retail peak days).
• High school diploma required; design education/training is a plus.
