Job Description

Are you a flooring focused designer who thrives on creativity, collaboration, and commercial impact?

This is an excellent opportunity to join a globally recognised business with a long-standing heritage in woven carpet design, trusted by leading hospitality, workplace, and public space designers across the UK and internationally.

You will collaborate directly with leading A&D practices, translating creative intent into technically viable, commercially appropriate woven carpet designs, while ensuring brand integrity, manufacturability, and project timelines are maintained.

This is a role where design credibility, communication skills, and technical understanding are equally important.
