Who You Are You're a people person who thrives on variety. You genuinely enjoy connecting with others—whether it's a potential client walking through the door, a journalist you're pitching a story to, or a community partner at a local event. You're warm, approachable, and make people feel valued.

You're organized and self-directed. You can juggle office tasks, social media deadlines, and media outreach without dropping the ball. You create systems that work, stay on top of details, and follow through on what you commit to.

You're excited about marketing and communications. You want to develop your skills in social media, PR, and community building. You're comfortable writing press releases, creating social content, and putting yourself out there to build relationships. You're persistent, proactive, and always learning.

You understand that keeping the office running smoothly is just as important as crafting the perfect Instagram post. You see how it all connects to creating a great experience.

Why This Role Matters You'll make critical first impressions for Lamont Bros.—both in person and online. You're often the first person potential clients interact with when they call or walk into our West Linn showroom.

You'll shape how our community sees us. Through social media, local press coverage, and community presence, you'll amplify our brand and make sure people know about the great work we're doing. You'll turn completed projects into stories, build relationships with local media, and keep us visible where it matters.

This role directly impacts our growth. Every lead you qualify, every post you create, every story you pitch, and every relationship you build helps more people discover Lamont Bros. and choose us for their remodeling projects.
