About the Role

We are seeking a senior design leader to helm the design function at a premium, design-led interior design and build firm based in Singapore. We specialise in high-value residential and commercial projects (minimum $300K), serving discerning homeowners and businesses across landed properties, luxury condominiums, and commercial spaces.

This is a leadership role for a designer who can balance creative vision with commercial savvy – someone who can lead client engagements with confidence, elevate design quality across the studio, and mentor a team while staying hands-on with design output.

What You'll Do

• Lead client engagements from first consultation through concept, design development, and final presentation.
• Represent the brand's design philosophy with polish and authority in front of high-net-worth clients and business owners.
• Translate client lifestyles and requirements into compelling, buildable spatial designs.
• Own and uphold the studio's design standard – ensuring every project reflects our premium positioning.
• Review and elevate design output across the team, from concept boards to construction drawings.
• Drive material selection, detailing, and finish quality appropriate to the luxury segment.
• Support business development through design pitches and proposal presentations.
• Convert enquiries into signed projects through design credibility and client trust.
• Collaborate with management on positioning, showroom, and brand-building initiatives.
• Lead, mentor, and develop the design team.
• Manage design workflows, timelines, and resource allocation across concurrent projects.
• Coordinate with project management and quantity surveying teams to ensure design intent is delivered on site.

What You Bring

• Minimum 10 years of interior design experience, specifically in the Singapore market.
• Strong portfolio spanning luxury residential (landed and high-end condominiums) and commercial projects – this is essential.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD, SketchUp, and related design tools.
• Confident, polished, and credible in front of high-net-worth clients – excellent presentation and communication skills.
• Able to lead and mentor a team while remaining hands-on with design quality and output.

Why Join Us?

This is an opportunity to lead the design direction of a premium, design-led brand with a strong pipeline of high-value projects. You'll have the autonomy to shape the studio's creative output, work on exciting luxury projects, and grow with a supportive leadership team.

If you're a design leader ready to make your mark, we'd love to hear from you.
