Role Overview

This position is for an Intermediate Interior Designer who will work with the Director and the wider team on projects from early concept development through to final completion. The role is practical and varied, giving exposure to concept creation, technical documentation, FF&E specification, procurement, and installation on site.

The opportunity suits someone with 2 to 5 years of experience who wants to strengthen technical capability, build confidence in creative decision-making, and gain broader project management exposure within an award-winning studio.

Key Duties

You will develop concepts based on client briefs, produce mood boards and presentation material, and contribute to space planning, custom joinery ideas, and design detailing. You will also create technical drawing packages in AutoCAD, including plans, elevations, joinery drawings, and schedules suitable for presentation, pricing, and construction.

In addition, the role includes researching and selecting furniture, lighting, fabrics, finishes, and accessories; preparing FF&E schedules; gathering quotations and samples; and helping manage procurement and product coordination throughout each project.

You will support project delivery across all stages, attend client meetings, supplier visits, and site inspections, and work with contractors, consultants, and suppliers so that the design vision is delivered correctly during construction. You will also assist with installations, styling, and final handover.

Day to day, you will collaborate with the wider studio team across multiple projects, keep project files and schedules well organised, and contribute ideas while maintaining the studio’s high design standards.
