Kitchen Tune-Up of Grand Rapids is a locally owned kitchen and bath remodeling company, and our showroom is where customers start picturing their new kitchen. We're looking for the person who makes it feel welcoming — and who then stays with our customers as a friendly point of contact from first visit to finished project. Your days center on people and moving parts: greeting walk-ins, coordinating projects through scheduling and installation, keeping customers informed, and helping them finalize selections that make a kitchen theirs — cabinet finishes, countertops, tile, hardware. Our systems handle routine updates; your job is the personal contact on top of them, a real person customers know by name. If you have an eye for color and style and energy for people, we will train you.

Regular weekday business hours — nights and weekends are rare.

Room to grow

This role is hired with growth in mind. As your skills develop, there's room to take on larger responsibility — deeper design work, a path toward sales, or a hand in running the business side.

What you'll do

• Welcome the showroom — greet walk-ins, answer questions, help visitors explore displays and samples
• Serve as each customer's communication touchpoint — check-in calls, emails, and texts that keep them informed and reassured
• Coordinate scheduling and follow-ups so every project's details keep moving
• Support selection appointments, helping customers finalize design selections and documenting each choice
• Keep selection records accurate, and the showroom sharp with samples current

What we’re looking for

• An eye for design, color, and style — you notice what works in a room
• Personable and polished in person; warm and professional on the phone and in writing
• Ambitious and eager to learn — drive matters more than a long résumé
• Organized — you keep details straight across several projects at once
• Comfortable learning software and systems (we’ll train you on ours); you take pride in customers feeling taken care of

Why work for Kitchen Tune-Up

• A local, family-owned company where you'll work directly with the owners
• Real training and a role built to develop
• Variety every day: showroom visitors, design selections, and customers mid-project
• You’ll see kitchens go from first sketch to finished room — and help customers love the experience
