Sell floors, make a great living, and make a great life.

We are looking for an experienced Flooring Design Associate to help us take our locally-owned flooring retail business to a new level in 2024. The right person for this job has direct flooring experience, in-home sales experience, and loves helping people. Other than that, the only major qualification is that you are motivated to improve yourself and your life. We work constantly on improving as a team, and that’s what makes us successful.

Are you tired of working for a company that does not prioritize your customer’s experience?
Do you feel like your employer isn’t really focused on how your job can be a growth opportunity for YOU?
Do you wish you could be part of a team where “enjoying the ride” is a core value that we really live by?

Floor Coverings International is a network of 250+ locally-owned businesses, and together we are the #1 rated flooring retailer in North America. Across hundreds of locations, dozens of online ratings sites, and tens of thousands of reviews, we average a rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars. Unlike many of our competitors, we are not a “churn & burn” culture – we try to provide a 5-star experience to every customer we meet with, and the top salespeople in our network have a close rate of ~70%.

We opened our doors in Albuquerque at the end of September 2023, and have had a great first few months in business. Our local husband-and-wife ownership team is as ambitious about workplace culture as we are about providing our customers with the very best flooring experience in Albuquerque. We want everyone who works with us to feel good about their role and about what we do as a team, and we want everyone involved to grow (yes, that means financially, but it also means quality of life and career opportunity). We have put many years of preparation into setting this business – and this position – up for success.

The Design Associate position will work closely with our local owner/operator and our Office Manager. If this is the job for you, please apply and let us know why!
