Competitive Salary based on experience + Super.
Aube is an integrated design, interior design, and construction practice specialising in commercial, fit-out, and high-end residential projects. We deliver projects from concept to completion, covering every stage, from feasibility, design, and planning through to turnkey construction.
Our unique model empowers our architects and designers to lead the process from initial concept through to delivery, ensuring creativity and buildability are always aligned. We believe the best outcomes emerge from the synergy between design vision and construction expertise, delivering projects that balance architectural ambition with construction excellence.
Founded by forward-thinking co-founders, Aube has grown into a thriving workplace where talented specialists can flourish. Our culture is grounded in collaboration, authenticity, innovation, and growth. By prioritising the wellbeing and strengths of our highly experienced team, we create an environment that sustains high-quality outcomes and experiences for our valued clients.
The Opportunity
We are seeking an accomplished Senior Interior Designer with strong design intuition and the confidence to lead — someone who is motivated by translating an early client brief into a clear and considered design direction, and carrying that vision through to a delivered space.
Working across commercial, fit-out, and high-end residential projects, you will lead the interior design process from concept through documentation and delivery. Because design and construction sit within a single practice at Aube, your work is never handed across a divide. You will coordinate directly with our architects on spatial and technical resolution, engage with the preconstruction and construction teams while key decisions remain open, and see your detailing resolved on site.

Apply sustainable design principles and coordinate with consultants on carbon and environmental outcomes for interior elements
Mentor junior designers, contribute to design reviews, and support internal learning initiatives

Sound understanding of construction methodologies, detailing, and D&C; project delivery
