- Sourcing furniture, finishes, and fixtures from our trade vendors while keeping an eye on pricing and lead times
- Teaming up with our senior and intermediate designers and project managers to keep projects moving and milestones met
- Joining client meetings and helping with the thoughtful follow-up and documentation that keeps everything on track
- Keeping our project files, digital libraries, and material resources organized and easy to love

- Great communication, time management, and the ability to juggle a few things at once with a smile
- A positive attitude and real eagerness to learn in a busy, creative studio
- Curiosity about AI tools and an openness to folding them into your workflow, we love teammates who like to work smart
- A portfolio that shows us your eye (please upload it with your cover letter, we cannot wait to see it)
Benefits - A competitive salary in the $55,000 to $75,000 range, commensurate with experience
- Health insurance
- Paid vacation, holidays, and sick leave
- A front-row seat to elite residential projects across NYC and beyond
