About the role

This is an opportunity for an ambitious Interior Designer who has built a solid professional foundation and is ready for the next stage of their career. The role suits someone who wants to contribute to award-winning projects while developing further within a growing national interior design team.

Projects are delivered both independently and collaboratively, and the work involves end-to-end project delivery across concept, documentation, and construction phases. Revit is central to the role, and experience across Workspace, Health and Science, Commercial, and Education projects will be viewed favourably.

The role also involves communicating design intent through multiple tools and presentation formats such as Revit, Enscape, InDesign, Photoshop, SketchUp, and newer technologies including VR.

The Canberra studio is located in the CBD, close to commercial and hospitality amenities, civic spaces, parklands, and public transport. The local team is described as close-knit, welcoming, and energetic.

Key duties

• Support projects through all stages, including concept design, space planning, design development, documentation, site-based construction support, and contract administration.
• Take part in client briefings, workshops, and collaborative design development sessions.
• Produce interior design documentation and deliverables in Revit.
• Prepare presentations and communicate concepts using tools such as Revit, Enscape, InDesign, Photoshop, SketchUp, VR, and similar platforms.
• Work effectively with both small groups and larger project teams.

About you

You should be genuinely passionate about design, enjoy collaborative work, and be driven by outcomes. The ideal candidate will already have proven creative ability and a strong work ethic, and will now be looking to take on larger and more complex projects.
