- Proficiency in AutoCAD and Adobe Creative Suite; SketchUp/3D skills advantageous.
- Strong knowledge of FF&E selection for luxury hospitality environments.
- Experience liaising with hotel brand representatives and interpreting brand standards.
- Exceptional attention to detail, with strong organisational and communication skills.
- Ability to work independently in a consultancy format, with a proactive and entrepreneurial mindset.
Why Apply?
This is an unparalleled chance to:
- Contribute to an internationally renowned design studio as it plants its roots in London.
- Be part of the core London founding team, influencing both creative output and the studio’s identity.
- Work on prestigious, high-profile branded hotel projects from concept to completion.
- Transition into a senior permanent role after the first year, as the studio expands and secures a growing portfolio.
