An opportunity for an Associate Director to help shape a new direction for workplace interiors. The focus is on design-led, high-end contemporary spaces for clients in luxury fashion, law and investment banking, alongside boutique private offices. These projects call for a distinctive approach to workplace design, with exceptional materials, custom joinery and careful attention to detail.

Working alongside the Studio Director, you will set the creative direction for large-scale projects, lead teams of ten or more and guide the work from concept through delivery. You will build strong client relationships, including with high-net-worth individuals, mentor designers and contribute to new business opportunities.

  • Extensive experience leading workplace projects, including large-scale schemes
  • The creative ability to bring architecture and interiors together in a compelling concept
  • A thorough understanding of how design ideas are detailed, coordinated and built
  • A portfolio demonstrating sensitivity to materials, resolved detailing, strong spatial thinking and an understanding of how people experience a space
  • A genuine interest in craftsmanship, high-specification materials and bespoke joinery
  • Experience leading and mentoring teams
  • Confidence managing demanding clients and maintaining strong industry relationships
  • The ability to balance creative leadership with programme, team and project management
  • Knowledge of Vectorworks and Rhino/Enscape, with an understanding of how Revit is used on increasingly complex projects
  • Workplace contacts and experience contributing to pitches or winning new business would be advantageous

The studio is entering a new chapter, with a refreshed identity and an ambitious pipeline spanning commercial and hospitality projects. It offers an excellent culture and attractive package, alongside the opportunity to help shape the future of its interiors work.
