Junior Designer / Studio Assistant

 

Michael Groth co is a boutique Interior Design firm in New York City focusing on hospitality projects across the US. We are currently expanding quickly with more projects than we know what to do with, and are looking for extra hands and minds to bring our next projects to life.

 

Looking for a passionate person who is well-organized and experienced (2+ years) in Design, Architecture, or Interior Architecture. Previous experience with Hospitality projects a plus. More important than experience, we are looking for someone who has a passion for design, specifically in hospitality and commercial spaces. If you're the kind of person who spends more time staring at ceiling details and contemplating lighting when you go out at night, this might be the job for you. You will be working directly with the principal designer, and may be joining on site visits in New York or New Jersey.

 

Responsibilities: 

  • Create and update design drawing sets including plans, elevations, schedules, and details
  • Coordinate with FF&E vendors and fabricators
  • Communicate with architect of record, contractor, and other collaborators as needed
  • Attend site visits to support principal designer
  • Source unique furniture, products, and finishes
  • Periodically give belly rubs to our 4-legged intern and rescue pup, Weezy

 

Software: AutoCAD, SketchUp, Adobe Creative Suite, Apple Keynote, Google Docs

 

Plus: Experience / knowledge of PR and communications in the design industry

 

Location: Work to be completed on-site in Greenpoint, Brooklyn or the East Village, with some flexibility to work remotely if the fit is right

 

Compensation: Rate based on experience. Also open to students looking for school credit depending on previous work experience.

 

This is a great opportunity to get hands-on with every aspect of hospitality design and grow with a small studio looking to make a big impact. Work will be part-time project-based to start, with potential to become permanent part-time or full-time in the future as the firm grows.
