A confident Middleweight Designer looking to progress their career within a multi-award-winning workplace design studio.
Position
This is a particularly strong opportunity for a Middleweight Designer who feels confident in their ability and is ready to take the next step. The studio offers real scope to quickly develop into a more senior role, with increasing responsibility and ownership.

The successful candidate will take ownership of projects, managing design development, coordinating with internal teams and external consultants, and ensuring delivery aligns with both creative intent and commercial requirements.
You will be involved in presentations, design development and detailed drawing production, while maintaining a clear understanding of programme, budget and project constraints. The role requires confidence working across multiple stages of design, with the ability to move seamlessly between concept thinking and technical delivery.
