CAD Designer Role Summary
3-month Contract with strong potential to become permanent

- UK driver’s licence and access to a car for site visits
- Ability to carry out site surveys confidently and assess build constraints
- Strong client-facing skills and the ability to manage expectations
- Experience within interiors, bespoke joinery, furniture or fit-out environments
- Workshop experience is beneficial but not required
- Organised, proactive and comfortable taking initiative in a small studio setting
Why Apply?
