We are looking for an Intermediate Interior Designer who is ready to take the lead on their own projects. This is the role for a designer who has a few years under their belt, knows how to carry a project through every phase, and is excited to own that work day to day. You will run your projects with confidence while a senior designer sets the overall creative direction and is there for the big calls, so you get real responsibility with strong support behind you. If you love seeing a project through from concept to install and taking pride in the details along the way, you will feel right at home here.
