  • The company supplies furniture across the UK, where attendance at client site visits, surveys and installations may be required.
  • Good practical understanding of how things fit together ‘in the real world’. You will be designing things digitally (in CAD software) that need to perform with respect to the material properties (fabric, leather, foam, timber, etc.) when in use by the client.
  • A ‘design eye’ and appreciation for textiles, material, colour, and finish.

Duties

  • The design and development of new upholstered furniture.

  • Provide design support and advice to the broader company team, as required, when raising quotes.
  • Advise clients on design details, fabrics, frame construction etc., as required.
  • Attending/performing site surveys/visits, to measure up for bespoke seating in both domestic and commercial settings.
  • Close co-operation with the company workshop, to guarantee the delivery of high-quality work that meets the customer’s needs.
  • Liaise with external manufacturing teams, maintaining a good working relationship and ensuring this work is supplied on time and as required.

The ideal candidate will have experience and a practical understanding of furniture production and upholstery methods, and the confidence to manage bespoke projects from the initial design phase through to installation.
