B-W Covid 19 Hiring Status

Bridgeport Worldwide will be conducting remote interviews
and hiring during this time. This is a full time, on-site position
in Bridgeport, Connecticut. It is expected to start partially
remotely. Due to the current Covid 19 situation, we'll work closely
with you as we understand every person has unique
circumstances.

Who we are and what we do

Bridgeport Worldwide is a small (~20 person) but growing company
in the high-end North American design and construction sector. We
import, market, help specify and sell high-performance building
supplies from all over the world. We have customers from all
segments in a market that is both long-established and in the midst
of serious transformation.

Our success is contingent on our ability to educate anyone in
the design/build universe, including our direct customers, on how
to properly specify and integrate our product offering into their
projects. Our business works with designers and builders to help
them create beautiful environments for their clients. For us, it is
just as important that everything we do to communicate with them or
with each other reflects this same desire for beauty.

The Creative Services team is here to do just that. We are
responsible for maintaining the look-and-feel (and sound!) of our
brand, and that of our manufacturers. We embody the company's
spirit, and work closely with various internal and external teams
to create assets for digital and brand campaigns, and efficient
tools for our sales teams.
