We’re looking for a Design Manager:
We’re looking for someone that is steeped in the world of design. Someone that has some impressive projects tucked firmly under their belt with lots of room for more to join.

Someone that can lead a team and control their quality. Someone that takes pleasure in design and pride in teaching others. Someone that can switch off from residential to commercial with no transition. Someone that is familiar with the terms and savvy with the codes. Someone that understands that design is a lot more than pretty fabrics and glossy swatches. Someone that wants a career yet wants to be part of something bigger than themselves.
If you crossed the line from starry eyed creative to established professional, reach out.
And don’t let our high expectations deter you. We’re human too.
