About The Role:
The Crowd are excited to be partnered with a highly acclaimed US-based boutique interior design studio that is looking for an experienced and collaborative Senior Project Manager to join its growing team in London. With a focus on luxury residential and hospitality projects, our client is an internationally recognised design studio whose work is regularly featured in leading publications including Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, Vogue, and Wallpaper. With their London team in its infancy, this is an opportunity to make a career move and make your mark within a highly noteworthy design company where its people are at the heart of everything they do.
Renowned for delivering interiors that balance architectural clarity with layered materiality and a strong narrative sensibility, the studio is widely regarded for producing highly refined, design-led spaces across both residential and hospitality sectors. This role would suit an experienced and highly organised design professional with a strong background in luxury residential interiors, construction administration, and project delivery. You will work closely with the founder and senior leadership team to oversee projects from concept through to completion, balancing design integrity with technical execution while acting as a trusted representative of the studio on-site and in client-facing environments.
You will collaborate closely with consultants, contractors, and vendors across all phases of the project, taking ownership of project coordination, scheduling, construction administration, and technical delivery, while contributing creatively to the overall design direction. This is a senior-level role requiring someone confident in managing complex projects independently, with exceptional communication, organisational, and leadership skills.
