Window Treatment Designer

Window Treatment Designer | Chicago, IL About the Role

Do you thrive on the details—knowing that great design isn’t just about how something looks, but also how it works? Are you energized by meeting new people and closing projects, but also love building efficient systems that make work flow smoothly? Do you want to work in a company that values hustle and results as much as talent and creativity?

If so, this role is for you.

Our Chicago showroom is the centerpiece of the Skyline brand—a place where clients experience the possibilities of design. As a Window Treatment Designer, you’ll blend salesmanship with design expertise, bringing ideas to life for clients while ensuring every project is executed with precision.

• Build strong client relationships through a consultative, hospitality-driven approach.
• Translate design principles into functional, aesthetic solutions that elevate a client’s home.
• Support the showroom experience—ensuring it reflects brand standards, inspires clients, and drives measurable results.
• Monitor KPIs, propose solutions, and contribute to an organized, high-performance studio environment.
• Coordinate consultations, manage new leads, and create seamless handoffs throughout the customer journey.

Who You Are

• A natural closer—assertive, confident, and motivated by hitting (and exceeding) goals.
• A relationship-builder who thrives on face-to-face client interactions and delivers a luxury-level experience.
• Detail-oriented, organized, and analytical—you track progress and love improving systems.
• Tech-savvy—you embrace digital tools that streamline workflow and communication.
• A team player who thrives in a fast-moving, collaborative, small-business environment.
• Someone who sees challenges as opportunities and has the drive to solve them.

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience preferred.
• A proven ability to balance creativity with business results.
