Step into a senior design role where you can stay hands-on while taking the next step into team leadership.

- Lead high-quality commercial interior projects from concept through to delivery
- Mentor and guide a talented team while remaining actively involved in design
- Join an established national practice with flexibility around hours and working arrangements

The Prospect

ROUSSOS Recruitment is exclusively partnering with an established national design business to appoint a Senior Interior Designer to its Adelaide studio.

Working across commercial interiors, including workplace, government and other public and private-sector environments, the Adelaide team delivers a diverse portfolio of considered, design-led projects for established clients.

You will play a key role in leading projects, developing design outcomes and building strong client relationships, while also supporting the development of junior and intermediate designers within the team.

The role is particularly well suited to a Senior Interior Designer who is already mentoring others and is ready to make that a more formal part of their role.

You will remain hands-on across design, documentation and delivery, while taking greater ownership of team coordination, design quality and project leadership.

There is also flexibility around working arrangements, including consideration of a four-day week and flexible start and finish times for the right person.

The Role

You will lead interior design projects across the full project lifecycle, working closely with clients, consultants and the broader design team.

Your responsibilities will include

- Leading commercial interior projects from concept through to documentation and delivery
- Developing design concepts, space planning and design solutions
- Managing client relationships, presentations, workshops and design discussions
- Remaining hands-on with design development and technical documentation
- Coordinating consultants, stakeholders, project programmes and deliverables




- Reviewing documentation and maintaining high standards of design and technical quality
- Mentoring and supporting junior and intermediate designers
- Providing day-to-day guidance and contributing to the development of the Adelaide interiors team
- Supporting the Studio leadership team with design direction and project oversight
- Contributing to the continued growth and success of the Adelaide studio

The Like Mind

We are looking for an experienced Senior Interior Designer who is ready to broaden their leadership responsibilities while remaining closely connected to the design process.

You will ideally bring

- 7+ years' commercial interior design experience, with 10+ years highly regarded
- Proven experience leading projects across concept, design development, documentation and delivery
- Strong concept design, space planning and technical capability
- Advanced Revit capability and strong design documentation skills
- AutoCAD experience desirable
- Confidence managing clients, consultants and project stakeholders
- Experience reviewing documentation and maintaining design and technical quality
- Previous experience mentoring or supporting junior and intermediate designers
- A collaborative and approachable leadership style
- The confidence to take ownership, make decisions and provide direction to others

You may already be taking on informal team leadership responsibilities, or you may be an established Senior Interior Designer ready to step into a more structured leadership role.

The key is that you still want to design. This is not a role that takes you away from projects — it gives you the opportunity to have greater influence over the work, the people around you and the direction of the team.
