The Ornament Girl, LLC Hiring for Content Creator and Instructor Job at Remote Full Time

Please note: Phone interview questions are required. If these are left unanswered, your application will be declined. Please feel free to message me if you have technical difficulties with the phone interview questions.

Do you love working with fabric, beads, ribbons, and other craft supplies? With thousands of customers receiving our monthly craft kits and patterns, we’re looking for a creative and imaginative individual who will join our team to help bring our ornament ideas to life, and help me teach them to our thousands of monthly subscribers. This position is a custom-built role for a niche business, with various tasks which will change often. You will work with us to learn the tasks, our processes, and teaching methods, and my goal is that you will become a known and loved instructor in our Ornament Girl community.

We prefer this position to be in-person, in our shop located in Eustis, FL, but we’re completely willing to consider working with you remotely if you’re the perfect candidate. Please note that remote employees will need equipment to perform most tasks, such as photography and video.

Who we are:
We are a successful online-based business providing craft products (patterns, kits, and supplies) for our customers. We have an established brand and customer base, serving thousands of regular monthly customers through our two subscription clubs, our eCommerce store, and our online membership platform.

What does our Content Creator/Instructor look like?

• You have a strong background in crafting (especially relating to fabric), and are willing to become an expert in no-sew ornament making.
• You have strong photography skills.
• You are comfortable with the idea of teaching ornament-making on camera.
• You are capable of describing and explaining your ideas with clear instruction and communication.
• You have an artistic eye for color, pattern, and texture.
• You are creative, driven, and humble.
• You are a self-starter.
• You respond well to feedback and have an ownership mentality.
• The idea of working closely with others on creative projects sounds fun and not competitive.
• You CARE about your work and realize that even small details are extremely important.
• You strongly align with our company values (see below).

Who you are not:

• Someone who only thrives in a structured environment
• Someone who always needs to be told what to do next
• Someone who cares only about themselves and isn’t aware of the team

Some of the tasks you’ll perform:

• Work with our design team to bring our ornament ideas and prototypes to completion: Making & testing prototypes, trying out fabrics, embellishments, etc.
• Help to refine any processes, directions, and techniques. This includes mapping out additional processes needed, like creating templates.
• Photography of ornaments, products & supplies, tips & tricks, etc.
• Pattern Instruction: Taking photos of pattern-making processes, and writing out complete, descriptive, and well-written instructions.
• Eventually… Record Club video tutorials each month, as well as other video tutorials, tips & tricks, etc.
• Meeting with me on a weekly basis to discuss your work, projects, and progress.

Why join our team:

• Work with some pretty cool people, in an informal (though fast-paced) environment. Half of our team works remotely, and half of our team works here in our shop (our 2000-square-foot shop is located on our own property).
• A creative outlet, with tons of room for new ideas and innovation.
• Dependability is absolutely necessary (our team is small, so we will depend on you), but we are also very flexible.

The Hiring Process:

Apply: Apply here on Indeed. (Serious applicants only please! Phone interview questions are required.)

First Round: We’ll meet virtually to discuss the role, your experience with ornament-making, photography, and teaching, and for me to assess your compatibility with our design team and company philosophy.

Second Round: You’ll send some photos and examples of your work, and I may possibly request that you send me an example of your work through the mail.

Third Round: We’ll work together on a portion of one of our OG current projects, so we can make sure it’s a good fit (you will be compensated for your time).
