You’ll bring analytical rigor, creativity, and entrepreneurial instincts to help Craighill scale efficiently while maintaining our uncompromising standards for quality and design integrity.

You’ll work closely with the CEO and the Operations team to translate creative vision into operational excellence — ensuring our products are produced and delivered efficiently, thoughtfully, and with care.
