An established, design-led interiors business in Twickenham is looking for an Interior Technical Designer to join its in-house interior design team. The team designs high-end residential interiors, show homes and furniture collections across central and West London, and this role owns the technical side of that work.
This is a role for a designer who understands how interiors are built, not just how they are drawn. You will take approved design concepts and client briefs and turn them into accurate, coordinated and buildable drawing packages, improving the details rather than simply drawing what you are given, and you will see them through to site. The role reports to the Head of Interior Design and offers a clear path to Senior Interior Technical Designer or Technical Design Lead.
Projects are based in central and West London. A driving licence is not needed.
The role
- Producing detailed AutoCAD drawing packages: floor plans, room elevations, setting-out plans and technical layouts
- Preparing bespoke joinery packages for cabinetry, wardrobes, media units, shelving and fitted elements
- Preparing kitchen drawings and elevations, coordinating cabinetry, appliances, finishes and services
- Developing interior construction details, including doors, coving and cornice, skirting and architraves, wall panelling, ceilings and junctions
- Reviewing supplier, contractor and shop drawings before issue or approval
- Coordinating with designers, contractors, joiners, suppliers and consultants, including lighting and M&E
- Attending site visits and surveys to take and check dimensions and resolve technical queries
- Managing technical work across several live projects, with accurate revisions and drawing control
What we are looking for
- A full degree in Interior Design or Interior Architecture (essential)
- Around 3 or more years' experience in an interior design or interior architecture studio
- Advanced AutoCAD, with excellent technical detailing and a strong understanding of construction
- Proven joinery and kitchen detailing experience
- A good design eye, with a feel for proportion, materials and finishes
- Strong Excel and Outlook skills, and the ability to manage several projects and deadlines at once
- Confident communication with contractors and on site; client-facing experience is a bonus
- SketchUp is desirable, and visualisation or rendering ability is beneficial but not essential
- Living within easy reach of Twickenham, as the role is office based five days a week with no home working
- A driving licence is not required
- A portfolio showing joinery details, elevations and drawing packages, to present at interview
What is on offer
- £30,000 to £40,000, with the top of the range for an exceptional candidate
- 25 days holiday
- Pension
- Parking on site
- Travel expenses and an Oyster card for project travel
- Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm
- Varied, high-end residential projects in central and West London
- Clear progression to Senior Interior Technical Designer or Technical Design Lead
