We are looking for a creative and execution-focused Design Lead to lead the design development of commercial interior and commercial fit-out projects. The role combines design leadership, concept development, technical coordination, client engagement, and project execution to deliver high-quality, functional, and commercially viable interior environments.

The ideal candidate will have strong design sensibility, excellent technical understanding, and the ability to take ownership of projects from initial concept through design development and execution. You will work closely with clients, architects, consultants, project teams, vendors, and internal stakeholders to ensure design intent is translated effectively into completed spaces.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead design development for commercial interior and commercial fit-out projects from concept to execution.
  • Understand client briefs, business requirements, workplace needs, budgets, timelines, and design expectations.
  • Develop creative and practical design concepts aligned with project objectives and client requirements.
  • Lead space planning, layouts, concept presentations, mood boards, material selections, and design development.
  • Prepare and review interior design drawings, specifications, presentations, and technical documentation.
  • Coordinate with architects, consultants, MEP teams, project managers, contractors, vendors, and other stakeholders.
  • Ensure approved design intent is clearly communicated and maintained throughout project execution.
  • Review architectural and interior drawings, shop drawings, material samples, finishes, and project specifications.
  • Coordinate with estimation and procurement teams to ensure design solutions remain commercially viable.
  • Participate in client presentations, design reviews, meetings, and approval discussions.
  • Incorporate client feedback while protecting design quality, project feasibility, and timelines.
  • Conduct site visits and work with execution teams to resolve design and technical issues.
  • Identify design clashes, execution challenges, and potential deviations and recommend appropriate solutions.
  • Ensure design deliverables are completed accurately and within agreed project schedules.
  • Manage multiple design assignments and prioritise deliverables based on project requirements.
  • Support value engineering and identify opportunities to optimise cost without compromising design intent.
  • Establish and maintain design standards, templates, documentation practices, and quality benchmarks.
  • Work closely with project teams to ensure smooth transition from design development to execution.
  • Mentor and guide junior designers and contribute to improving design processes and team capabilities.
  • Stay updated on commercial interior trends, workplace design, materials, sustainability, and emerging design practices.

What Makes You a Great Fit

  • 3+ years of professional experience in interior design, commercial interiors, workplace design, architecture, or a related field.
  • Strong hands-on experience in commercial interiors and commercial fit-out projects.
  • Proven ability to manage design projects from concept development through execution.
  • Strong understanding of space planning, workplace design, materials, finishes, furniture, lighting, and interior detailing.
  • Experience working on corporate offices, commercial spaces, retail, hospitality, or turnkey projects will be an advantage.
  • Strong proficiency in AutoCAD, SketchUp, Revit, Adobe Creative Suite, or similar design tools.
  • Ability to read and review architectural drawings, technical documentation, BOQs, specifications, and shop drawings.
  • Strong design sensibility with excellent attention to detail, functionality, aesthetics, and buildability.
  • Experience coordinating with clients, architects, consultants, contractors, vendors, and multidisciplinary project teams.
  • Good understanding of project budgets, timelines, cost optimisation, and commercial considerations.
  • Excellent presentation, communication, client-management, and stakeholder-coordination skills.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities with a practical and execution-oriented approach.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects, priorities, deadlines, and design deliverables simultaneously.
  • Strong ownership mindset with a commitment to design quality and successful project delivery.
  • Proactive, organised, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Interior Design, Interior Architecture, Architecture, or a related discipline is preferred.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
