Do you prefer to work with a team rather than alone? If you are a creative Interior Designer who is motivated, but you dread the hassle, stress and time of running a business, then working through our firm would be a great opportunity for you.
Many job positions in the Interior Design Field involve sitting behind a desk doing CAD all day or working set hours in a showroom. Our firm offers an alternative to working this type of job and/or having your own business. The position with our firm gives you the flexibility of working with clients and working a variety of projects.
Perhaps you are currently in business for yourself because you did not want to punch a clock, but you find yourself working all of the time. You may find yourself putting every dime back into your business rather than into your pocket? You have probably also realized you spend hours on the never ending paperwork. By working through our firm, you will be able to avoid the large overhead and time it takes to start and run a design business.
We are an Interior Design Firm specializing in industry soft goods and residential design. We have done some boutique commercial projects. Here are the details:
- We are currently a home based business, but are growing and have a big vision to expand
- We are offering business systems, administrative support, no overhead, no risk
- Great staff to process your paperwork so you can do what you do best…design!
- Eight years of branding in the Austin area
- Small base salary with a favorable commission structure and plenty of earning opportunity
- We have marketing systems in place to stay in touch with our warm market
- We are very active with social media and would set up and handle social media outlets for you
What we are looking for:
- Someone who is talented in Interior Design
- Someone who loves people and sales
- Someone who already has some existing clients or a large sphere of influence to easily obtain clients. We need someone who can hit the ground running with sales.
- Someone with a Design Degree or experience in the Design Field
- A Rainmaker – Our firm has a vision to build to a $1,000,000 plus in revenue. We are looking for someone who is motivated and loves to work in business development and sales. We are bringing on a new Designer for the sole purpose of growing our business. This is not a position where you will be handed a lot of leads. We are looking for someone to generate leads and business.
- Someone who has the flexibility to start out working 30 hours a week to build a client base into a 40 hour a week position.
- This is a sales position. We are looking for an Interior Designer who is capable of generating his or her own leads. Very few leads will be provided. If you enjoy networking, meeting people and closing sales then this is the perfect position for you.

Our North Austin client’s bathroom was in need of an update. The wallpaper was the first thing that had to go. The addition of rich warm tile and paint color tones, new wood stained cabinets and intricate tile work make this bathroom a success.
