We’re working with a highly creative, international interior design studio looking to appoint an Associate Interior Designer to join its London team.

The studio creates luxury hotels, hospitality and F&B interiors, delivering design-led projects from initial concept through to completion.

This is an opportunity for an experienced designer to move into a senior leadership position without stepping away from hands-on design. You’ll work closely with the Creative Director, leading multiple projects from initial concept and creative direction through design development, technical delivery and completion.

The role

You’ll combine hands-on design with project and team leadership, including:

  • Leading the creative and conceptual stages of projects, from research and initial ideas through to developed concepts.
  • Remaining hands-on with AutoCAD and design production where needed.
  • Producing and developing space plans, layouts and design intent.
  • Leading FF&E, material and finish selections, including the design of bespoke furniture.
  • Creating and delivering compelling client presentations and confidently presenting design concepts.
  • Leading projects through the full design process and ensuring the creative vision is maintained throughout.
  • Managing and mentoring designers from Junior through to Senior level.
  • Running collaborative design workshops and providing creative direction and constructive feedback.
  • Reviewing drawings, specifications, joinery and technical information alongside the wider project team.
  • Working closely with clients, consultants, suppliers, contractors and fabricators.
  • Maintaining oversight of programmes, budgets and deliverables across multiple projects.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

You’ll need to be a genuine design all-rounder with a strong creative eye and a thorough understanding of how projects are developed and delivered. You should be comfortable remaining hands-on with AutoCAD, while also having the confidence to lead projects, manage designers and present directly to clients.

Experience delivering high-quality hospitality and F&B interiors will be particularly relevant, alongside strong knowledge of FF&E, materials, finishes and bespoke design. Those with the relevant responsibility experience who have worked on other high-end project types will be considered.
