Why you should apply

  • Lead visible, purpose-driven work: Guide interior environments for healthcare, higher education, workplace, civic, and mixed-use—projects with scale, complexity, and community impact.
  • Create with autonomy: Drive programming, test fits, concept development, materiality, and experiential storytelling with a strong voice in key design decisions.
  • Accelerate your growth: Access in-house research, BIM/VDC expertise, sustainability leaders, and a robust design library to sharpen your craft and portfolio.
  • Earn client trust: Present strategies to executives and user groups; translate qualitative goals into measurable outcomes across schedule, budget, and performance.

  • Strong total rewards: Competitive salary with annual bonus eligibility, 401(k) match, comprehensive medical/dental/vision, generous PTO, paid parental leave, and wellness benefits.
  • Studio-based collaboration: Full-time, on-site role in Jacksonville for deep teamwork, mentorship, and rapid decision-making.

What you’ll do

  • Lead multiple interiors projects from programming and space planning through CDs, CA, and post-occupancy evaluation.
  • Develop cohesive concepts, palettes, and FF&E strategies aligned to client brand, user needs, and building performance.
  • Produce and oversee Revit/BIM documentation, details, and specifications meeting code, life-safety, and quality standards.
  • Coordinate with architecture, MEP/structural, lighting, AV, acoustics, and landscape to deliver integrated solutions.
  • Facilitate client and user workshops; translate insights into test fits, adjacency diagrams, blocking/stacking, and room data sheets.
  • Present to stakeholders; uphold design intent while integrating feedback to protect quality, schedule, and budget.
  • Manage vendors, pricing, mockups, and submittals; guide CA tasks including RFIs, ASIs, punch lists, and site observations.
  • Mentor Interior Designer I/II team members; review work for accuracy and model best practices in documentation and delivery.
  • Advance sustainability, wellness, and equitable design strategies; contribute to internal reviews and design charrettes.

About you

  • 8+ years of professional interior design experience.
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s in Interior Design or Interior Architecture (CIDA-accredited preferred).
  • NCIDQ achieved or in progress; professional registration preferred; LEED/WELL accreditation a plus.
  • Healthcare project experience preferred; additional experience in higher education, workplace, civic, or mixed-use valued.
  • Strong Revit proficiency required; Enscape/Lumion, Bluebeam, and Adobe CC (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop) preferred.
  • Expertise in space planning, detailing, finish and furniture specifications, and code/life-safety across occupancy types.
  • Confident communicator skilled at workshops, presentations, and cross-discipline coordination.
  • Portfolio showcasing concept clarity, material sophistication, technical rigor, and built results.

Impact areas you’ll touch

  • Healthcare: Patient-centered, staff-optimized environments that enhance outcomes and operational efficiency.
  • Higher Education: Agile learning spaces, labs, and student life hubs with durable, future-ready systems.
  • Workplace: Hybrid-ready planning, brand-forward experiences, and healthy, flexible environments.
  • Civic/Mixed-Use: Public-facing interiors balancing durability, wayfinding, accessibility, and universal design.

Compensation and benefits

  • Competitive base salary aligned to market and experience, with annual bonus eligibility.
  • 401(k) with employer match; company-paid life and disability insurance.
  • Medical, dental, and vision plans with HSA/FSA options.
  • Generous PTO plus paid holidays; paid parental leave.
  • Professional development support for NCIDQ/LEED/WELL, conferences, and courses.
  • Jacksonville studio amenities, ergonomic setup, sample library access, and wellness programming.
