Havenly, Interior Define, The Citizenry, Burrow, Inside, and St. Frank. Our family of brands is growing, and we’re looking for amazing people to join us on this journey!

Havenly is not just the #1 residential interior design service in America—we’re architecting the future of how millions design their homes.

We’re seeking an entrepreneurial P&L owner to own the strategy to scale our core design business through a paradigm shift: from traditional service delivery to AI‑augmented experiences that deliver 5× the value at 10× the speed. You’ll be the CEO of a business‑within‑a‑mid‑9‑figure revenue business, driving both our groundbreaking AI design assistant (launching to millions) and our premium human‑powered services that have already transformed millions of homes.

• Define how AI and human designers create synergy at massive scale
• Key stakeholder in the end‑to‑end experience from AI chat to complete room makeovers

• Build strategic relationships with key brands in our 500K+ product marketplace
