About Us
At The Urban Settler, we believe in "modern mountain living"—balancing hard work with outdoor recreation, casual living, and time well-spent at home with family and friends. Operating out of the historic 1908 Livery Building in Fernie, we provide custom furniture, high-end bedding, blinds, and full interior design services that blend vintage character with modern design.
We are looking for a creative, visually driven Social Media Coordinator/Graphic Designer to help us showcase our stunning products, and connect with our design community in the Kootenays
The Role
This is a hybrid creative role. You won’t just be sitting behind a screen; you’ll have a presence in our physical showroom and our project sites to capture authentic content, mixed with dedicated design. If you love interior design, beautiful spaces, and creating polished digital assets, you will thrive here.

- Ad Design: Create clean, eye-catching digital and print advertisements and other assets that match our modern mountain aesthetic.
- Brand Consistency: Maintain a cohesive visual identity across all platforms, ensuring our tone remains warm, professional, and inspiring.
- Website Updating: Knowledge of Shopify and updating website with new products/images etc, knowledge of custom coding is a bonus.
