  • Support the design and project team by aligning client expectations with creative and technical input
  • Represent the studio at key industry events, maintaining a polished, design‑first presence

Y’ll Bring

  • 5 + years’ experience in high‑end interiors, residential renovation, or design‑led sales
  • A proven ability to manage client pipelines, close deals, and communicate clearly with stakeholders
  • Strong contacts across the industry
  • A creative and keen eye for design
  • An intuitive understanding of construction, materials, finishes, and the luxury interiors process
  • Confidence using tools such as Adobe Suite, or CRM systems (HubSpot a plus)
