SUI is looking for a talented and highly hands-on Interior Designer to help bring the vision for our new Union Square wellness space to life.
This is a project-based role for someone who has a strong design eye but is equally comfortable with the practical side of executing a large physical space. You will work closely with SUI's founders, operations team, architects, contractors, and vendors to translate the overall creative vision into a cohesive, beautiful, functional environment.
Our ideal candidate has experience in hospitality, wellness, spa, hotel, restaurant, or high-end commercial interiors and can move comfortably between creative concept development and hands-on project execution.

Translate creative direction into practical design solutions
Take and verify on-site measurements and help plan furniture, fixtures, equipment, and spatial layouts
Source furniture, lighting, finishes, fixtures, décor, materials, and other interior elements
Research vendors and obtain pricing, samples, lead times, and alternatives
Develop and maintain FF&E schedules, sourcing lists, and design budgets
Help manage purchasing and ordering while keeping the project within budget
Track orders, deliveries, lead times, substitutions, and outstanding design items
Coordinate closely with architects, contractors, fabricators, vendors, and the SUI team
Visit the Union Square site regularly as the project progresses
Troubleshoot design and sourcing challenges as they arise
Help oversee installation and ensure the finished space reflects the intended design vision
What We're Looking For
A strong interior design portfolio is the most important qualification for this role
Strong aesthetic sensibility and ability to translate a creative vision into a cohesive physical environment
Experience with hospitality, wellness, spa, hotel, restaurant, retail, or similar commercial spaces strongly preferred
Strong digital rendering and visualization skills
Proficiency in relevant design software such as AutoCAD, SketchUp, Revit, Rhino, Adobe Creative Suite, or similar
Experience with FF&E sourcing, purchasing, and budgeting
Comfortable taking measurements and working from architectural drawings and floor plans
