Job description

Who We Are

Vesta Home is changing the way that homes are marketed-and furniture is sold. We're obsessed with the client experience for our full-service offerings: interior design, luxury staging, elevated furniture rentals, and custom furniture production, fueled by our proprietary technology and logistics expertise.

Founded in 2017, our team creates thoughtful, stunning interiors for residential, commercial, and hospitality projects. We proudly partner with top realtors, developers, the design trade, and personalities on some of the most prestigious properties in the high-end market. Chances are, you've seen our interiors in major design magazines as well as shows like Bravo's Million Dollar Listing and Netflix's Selling Sunset.

As the #1 home staging brand in the country, Vesta's design and local market depth in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, and South Florida help sell multimillion-dollar properties faster and above ask-and allow buyers to seamlessly move into beautiful furnished spaces.

Core Values

• \"Get it done!\": We have a bias toward action, and balance grit with smart work to accomplish our goals. We see business challenges as opportunities, always bring forward solutions, and believe there is no challenge too great that we cannot solve collectively


• \"Design excellence\": Exceptional design is a function of continuous improvement. We apply this ruthlessly and pursue design excellence in everything we do - from projects to processes to people


• \"Execute in partnership and with pride\": We rise by lifting others and are most successful when our peers and colleagues are successful as well. We obsess over quality, take pride in our work, and break down barriers to create seamless success


• \"Invest not spend\": We value impact and the efficient achievement of results. We invest money - we don't spend it. We expect and monitor the returns on all of our investments, from time to money


• \"Embrace a growth mindset\": We believe profitable growth creates opportunities and are intensely focused on progress. We develop the most talented people and empower them to offer world-class expertise to our clients
