Careers
Have you ever dreamed of building a career around furniture and objects that truly inspire? Here’s your chance.
Gild & Co. is a fast-growing, ever-evolving boutique in beautiful Point Grey, curating some of the world’s most sought-after furniture and home décor. Yes, really. We believe true luxury lies in authenticity—pieces made with purpose, beauty, and comfort in mind. Every item in our collection is thoughtfully chosen, with its essence and craftsmanship shining through.
If that resonates with you, we’d love to hear from you. Sales experience is required, but no background in furniture or interiors? No problem—we’ll train the right candidate who’s motivated, curious, and ready to learn.
What makes this position special?
– Collaborate closely with a small team and work one-on-one with the Store Manager to learn the ins and outs of running a retail business in the world of design, furniture, and art.
– Join a company built on shared values: environmental consciousness, inclusivity, and a belief in quality over quantity.
– Be part of something meaningful. This is your chance to contribute to a growing business and experience what it's like to be an entrepreneur from the inside out.
