What are the responsibilities and job description for the Seasonal Holiday Helper position at INTERIOR PLANTSCAPES?
Seasonal Holiday Helper – $18 /Hour Paid Travel Completion Bonus
Interior Plantscapes is building our seasonal Holiday Installation Team for the 2026 holiday season.
This is a hands-on, physical position helping install commercial Christmas and holiday décor for businesses throughout Greenville, Charlotte, Columbia, and Charleston. Projects include installing Christmas trees, wreaths, garland, ornaments, lighting, and other large-scale holiday displays.
This is a great seasonal opportunity for someone with experience in construction, landscaping, event setup, warehouse work, moving, maintenance, installation, delivery, or other physically demanding team environments.
Pay starts at $18/hour, with higher rates available for relevant experience, CDL, lift certification and similar qualifications. Eligible team members can earn up to $500 in seasonal completion bonuses. Company-paid hotels and a $30/day meal per diem are provided for overnight travel.
Schedule
Our primary installation season runs from approximately November 1 through the second week of December.
We will also have a holiday takedown season beginning immediately after Christmas and running through approximately the second week of January. Preference will be given to candidates who are available for both phases, but we will consider candidates who are only available during installation season.
Full-time availability is strongly preferred, but we may also have opportunities for candidates who are only available on certain days.
Paid training for new team members will take place during October, with some hours available between training and November 1.
Early mornings, long days, occasional weekend work, and overnight travel may be required depending on the installation schedule.
