Job description

RH at its core is about taste, and we believe the idea of scaling taste is large and far reaching. 

The RH brand attracts the best designers, artisans, manufacturers and talent in our industry, scaling and rendering their work more valuable across our integrated platform, enabling us to curate the most compelling collection of luxury home furnishings in the world. We are moving the brand beyond curating and selling products to conceptualizing and selling spaces by building an ecosystem of products, places, services and spaces that elevates and establishes the RH brand as a global thought leader, taste and place maker.

At RH we believe deeply that the "right" people are our greatest asset. We value people with high energy, who possess the ability to energize others. People who are smart, creative and have a point of view. People who see the answer in every problem, versus those who see the problem in every answer. People who are driven, determined and won't take "no" for an answer. We value team players, people who are more concerned with what's right, rather than who's right.

Design Consultants play an integral role in providing luxury service by assessing the needs of walk-in clientele in the RH Gallery.

  • Ensure fiscal goals are achieved
  • Represent the RH lifestyle brand through communication, personal appearance and professionalism
  • Maintain a strong interest in the luxury and Design industry
  • Support visual and quality standards within the Gallery

OUR REQUIREMENTS

  • Experience within a Design firm or high-end furniture and luxury retail preferred
  • Art, Architecture or Interior Design and relevant experience preferred
  • People and relationship driven
  • Strategic and mental agility
  • Highly organized
  • Collaborative
  • Results-oriented
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills

  • Licensed to drive preferred
  • Ability to travel locally or out of state
RH is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate against any applicant on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, marital status, age, disability, sexual orientation, military/veteran status, or any other status protected by federal or state law or local ordinance.

At RH, we are committed to promoting pay equity. Rate of pay is determined based on each individual's experience, qualifications, and the geographic location of the role.
