Interior Designer

Georgetown Manor, Inc., an Authorized Ethan Allen Retailer for 57 years, is the world's largest Ethan Allen Independent Retailer. We operate six Design Centers in Houston, Austin and San Antonio. The company offers our associates the best of both worlds: the opportunity to be affiliated with a global, best-in-class, home furnishings and interior design company, in addition to a hands‑on, locally owned and operated family business.

This unique relationship allows our associates to benefit from Ethan Allen's marketing, merchandising, store planning, customer service and IT resources, along with the local expertise of our owners and management team. The result is a streamlined organization that is able to provide the highest level of support to our associates and clients.

Ethan Allen is repositioning ourselves in the Austin market with two new Design Centers in Bee Cave and Cedar Park. Bee Cave opened in April, 2025 and Cedar Park will be opening in January, 2026. We are looking to hire 4‑5 new interior designers for Bee Cave and 1‑2 for Cedar Park. Training for these new hires will begin in early December.

The Design Consultant works closely with the customer in the design center, online or in the customer’s home to create individualized design solutions to sell Ethan Allen products and services. The designs include space planning, fabric coordination, product selection and overall project design. Successful execution is evidenced by developing individualized designs and achieving sales goals in a flexible relationship‑based selling environment.

Design Consultants will be measured based on performance categories (teamwork, customer service, communication skills, decision making, project development, presentation, and technical skills) and benchmarks (Monthly Sales, Home Calls, Accent Sales, Softgood Sales, Be‑Backs, PI, Close Ratio and Ethan Allen Trade Program) that contribute to the success of the Design Center as well as their own individual success. Must be skilled in the use of social media such as blogs, micro‑blogs, on‑line forum, content sharing web sites and other digital channels established for online interaction and connection to promote Ethan Allen’s brand as outlined in Ethan Allen’s Social Media Policy.

Design Consultants are compensated according to the Design Consultant Incentive Compensation Plan. Compensation is incentive‑based with total compensation determined by commissions and bonuses earned. Design Consultants are expected to meet or exceed Monthly Sales goals and other benchmarks as determined by Ethan Allen.
