Senior Interior DesignerLuxury Custom Homes & High-End Renovations

We're looking for a Senior Interior Designer who can confidently guide homeowners through one of the most significant investments they'll ever make while balancing creativity, technical expertise, project execution, and exceptional client service.

This role is for a designer who enjoys building relationships, solving problems, leading projects, making decisions, and helping clients navigate complex design choices with confidence.

You'll work directly with luxury custom home and renovation clients while collaborating with architects, project managers, estimators, and construction teams to deliver remarkable homes and experiences.

Who We Are

Custom One has built a reputation for delivering exceptional custom homes and renovations through outstanding craftsmanship, communication, and client experience.

We believe great design is about more than finishes and floor plans. It's about understanding people, solving problems, and creating spaces that reflect how clients want to live.

Our team values:

• Leadership
• Accountability
• Collaboration
• Innovation
• Excellence

We're looking for someone who shares those values and wants to help elevate both our clients and our design team.

• Participate in design reviews and project planning discussions
• Mentor junior designers and support team development
• Help improve design standards and best practices

What Makes Someone Successful Here

You enjoy building relationships but don't need constant social interaction.

You can balance creativity with practicality.

You are comfortable making decisions and moving projects forward.

You thrive when juggling multiple priorities and solving problems quickly.

You notice details others miss and take pride in getting things right.
