Custom Home Designer Jobs in California (NOW HIRING)

For over 40 years, Closet Factory has been designing, manufacturing, and installing custom cabinetry and organization systems for Bay Area homeowners. From custom closets and home offices to entertainment centers, pantries, garages, wall units, and more, every project is individually designed and custom-built for our clients.

We are looking for motivated, personable, and creative In-Home Sales Designers to join our team.

This is a unique career opportunity that combines sales, design, client consultation, and project management. You'll work directly with homeowners to understand their needs, create thoughtful custom designs, guide them through the purchasing decision, and remain involved with their project from the initial consultation through installation.

As an In-Home Sales Designer, you'll meet with prospective clients in their homes and manage the client relationship from the initial consultation through the completion of their project.

You'll:

• Meet with homeowners to understand their needs, priorities, style, and budget
• Evaluate and accurately measure their space
• Assess their belongings and determine how the space needs to function
• Create customized designs tailored to each client and their home
• Help clients select materials, finishes, colors, hardware, accessories, and other options
• Present your designs and recommendations
• Prepare and present proposals and pricing
• Guide clients through the decision-making process and confidently ask for the sale
• Coordinate with our internal teams and follow your projects through manufacturing and installation
• Maintain strong communication with clients throughout their projects
• Develop relationships, referrals, and your own sources of new business

This is a consultative sales position with a strong creative component. You do not need to be an experienced interior designer. We provide comprehensive training in our products, design process, professional design software, and proven sales approach.

What matters most is your ability to connect with people, listen, solve problems, stay organized, and confidently guide a client from an idea to a completed project.

For more than four decades, Closet Factory has built a reputation for quality, customization, and exceptional service throughout the Bay Area.

We design, manufacture, and install our projects. Our designers, manufacturing team, and installation crews work together as one organization, and every project is custom manufactured at our San Carlos facility. This gives our designers tremendous flexibility to create solutions tailored to each client's space, needs, and style.

Closet Factory is also proud to partner with Costco Wholesale and Lowe's, connecting their customers and members with our custom cabinetry and organization systems.

Experience in home improvement, remodeling, furniture, design, project management, or in-home sales is a plus, but not required.

If you're great with people, have an eye for design, enjoy solving problems, and are motivated by the opportunity to build your own success, this could be an exceptional career opportunity.

At Closet Factory, you'll have the backing of an established brand, comprehensive training, company-generated opportunities, professional design software, ongoing coaching, and an experienced team behind you.

You'll also have the opportunity to build something of your own: a client base, a referral network, a reputation, and a career where your growth and earning potential are driven by your performance.

If you're ready to combine creativity, sales, and entrepreneurship into a rewarding career, we'd like to meet you.

Compensation: 100% commission-based with uncapped earning potential. Expected annual earnings of $70,000–$150,000+, driven by individual sales performance.
