• At least 3 years of experience in procurement, finance, or logistics, preferably within interior design, hospitality, or construction sectors.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and Office; experience with Google Docs is a plus.
• Familiarity with Adobe Photoshop and InDesign is advantageous but not essential.
• Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail.
• Strong understanding of procurement and logistics processes.
• Comfortable managing budgets and cost reconciliations.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team in a high-energy environment.
