Role

This full time role is suitable for someone looking to build and establish their career with a high-end brand in the interior design industry.

Reporting to the Director, the Sales & Design Consultant will help service the industry’s Tier 1 leading interior designers, architects and stylists as well as their high end retail clientele.
