You'll contribute to projects that focus on health-driven, sustainable design, combining practicality with creativity. This is your chance to get in on the ground floor and help shape a new movement in wellness real estate. While the role offers flexibility, candidates based in the Northern Virginia or DC metro area are preferred for occasional in-person work.

As a valued member of our team, you'll take on a diverse range of responsibilities. Here's an overview of what your role might include:

What You’ll Do

• Collaborate with senior designers on all phases of design, from concept development and planning to final installation.

• Assist with architectural construction documents, space planning, and overseeing various design phases.

• Research and source sustainable materials, furnishings, and fixtures that align with wellness-focused design principles.

• Coordinate and manage FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment) schedules, orders, and deliveries, ensuring smooth procurement processes.

• Track and process purchase orders, resolving delays and issues while maintaining an organized procurement system.

• Prepare client proposals, pricing estimates, and presentations that communicate design ideas effectively.

• Develop presentation materials, maintain project documentation, and generate detailed schedules and spreadsheets to support project coordination.

• Provide on-site support during installations to ensure flawless execution and alignment with the design vision.

• Build and manage relationships with vendors, manufacturers, and contractors to secure quotes and meet project specifications.

• Help manage project schedules, track deliverables, and oversee the flow of project-related information.

• Organize and maintain an updated library of samples, materials, and finishes for team use.

• Contribute to the refinement of internal design systems, business processes, and team efficiencies.

• Assist in creating social media content, blog posts, and client communications to enhance The Well Home’s brand presence.

What You Bring

• A degree, enrollment, or completed coursework in interior design, architecture, or a related field (a BFA/AAS is preferred).

• 1-2 years of experience in AutoCAD, with proficiency in creating and modifying 2D and 3D technical drawings.

• Knowledge of space planning, construction documents, and an understanding of basic construction processes.

• Proficiency in design software, such as AutoCAD (for Mac preferred), SketchUp, Revit, or Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, InDesign).

• Familiarity with design management tools like Studio Designer is a plus.

• Strong organizational skills with the ability to multitask, meet deadlines, and manage priorities effectively.

• Creative problem-solving skills paired with high attention to detail and a positive, collaborative attitude.

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills for engaging with clients, vendors, contractors, and team members.

• A passion for wellness, sustainability, and designing spaces that promote health and harmony.

• Rendering skills, by hand or software, are an advantage.

• Proficiency in Google Suite and/or other project management tools.

• A driver’s license and access to reliable transportation to support site visits when needed.

This role offers the chance to integrate your technical expertise, creativity, and passion for wellness design into a hands-on, dynamic team environment.
