About Houseworks

Houseworks Collective is a real estate and home services company in historic downtown Cedarburg. We help homeowners across greater Milwaukee with every part of home: buying, selling, everyday repairs, and design-build renovations, all under one roof. Our team has helped clients buy and sell more than 750 homes and has completed more than $10 million in renovation projects. Our work has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, BizTimes Milwaukee, and HousingWire.

We’re a small, close-knit team that cares about purposeful work, thoughtful design, and real connection with the families we serve.

You’ll report to our Marketing Director, Samantha Strauss, and work closely with our Founder, Charlie Hutchinson.

We’re investing significantly in paid advertising on Meta, Google, and YouTube. You’ll create the photos, videos, and copy that power those campaigns, and work with our ad partner to see what’s working.
