Sogni di Cristallo (SDC) is a leading Italian brand specialising in the design, manufacture and craftsmanship of lighting and architectural glass.

With studios in Venice, London and New York, our mission is to preserve and innovate Venetian glassworking traditions and share them worldwide.

• conduct site visits, surveys and coordination meetings as required
• oversee drawing packages, revisions, approvals and production documentation
• assist with budgeting, quotations, procurement coordination and project reporting
• ensure projects are delivered to the highest design, technical and quality standards
• occasionally support on‑site installations and client‑facing project coordination in the US

• degree or proven experience in architecture/interior design
• three to five years of professional experience in architecture, interiors, lighting or bespoke fabrication projects
• experience with construction sites or custom manufacturing projects is a plus
• fluency in English;
  Italian is a strong advantage
• proficiency in AutoCAD and Rhino (2D/3D)
• good knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop)
• basic Excel skills (project trackers, schedules)
• understanding of glass, metalwork or bespoke fabrication is a plus
• highly organised, proactive and solution‑oriented, comfortable owning tasks and driving them forward
• strong communication skills and ability to work in a remote, multi‑country team
• must be based in New York; please do not apply if this is not the case

• Soho Works coworking membership in the US
• competitive salary, based on experience
• flexible working
• opportunity to work on iconic luxury projects across the US, UK and Europe
• exposure to high‑end bespoke manufacturing and Venetian artisan craftsmanship
• dynamic international team across New York, London and Venice
