Our median project runs $100,000+, and our clients expect—and receive—an unparalleled design experience.
The Role We're looking for a Senior Kitchen Designer to own projects from first client meeting through final installation. You'll work with high‑net‑worth clients who care about quality and timeline.

Who You Are
6+ years designing high‑end residential kitchens (luxury market experience strongly preferred)
Demonstrable proficiency in Chief Architect, AutoCAD, 2020 Design, or other compatible design software
Confident presenting to affluent clients and explaining design decisions with authority
Organized enough to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously
Hungry to sell—this is a commission role, and top performers here earn accordingly
Bachelor's degree preferred, but proven industry experience matters more
Nice to Have
Adobe Creative Suite proficiency
Existing relationships with South Florida architects, designers, or builders
Compensation & Benefits This is a commission‑based position with a guaranteed base salary. Our program features above‑market rates—designers who perform here earn into six figures.
