Senior Interior Designer

National Office Interiors & Liquidators is seeking a Senior Interior Designer with strong commercial workplace and contract furniture experience to lead the design side of client projects from early discovery and concept development through specification, documentation, and installation support.

This role will work directly with clients and our sales, project-management, and fulfillment teams to translate business needs into functional, visually compelling workplace solutions. The Senior Interior Designer will be expected to independently develop space plans, furniture applications, finish concepts, presentations, and quote-ready specifications while keeping budget, product availability, constructability, and project timelines in mind.

We are looking for a designer who understands that great commercial design has to work in the real world. The right candidate can create an impressive concept, explain the reasoning behind it to a client, specify the details accurately, and stay engaged through execution so the finished space reflects the design intent.

• Lead client discovery, programming, workplace-planning, and design conversations for assigned commercial furniture projects.
• Evaluate headcount, work styles, departmental needs, adjacencies, privacy, collaboration, storage, technology, growth, and other workplace requirements.
• Translate client goals, brand direction, budget, and functional requirements into clear design concepts and furniture solutions.
• Develop and present design concepts, finish palettes, furniture applications, renderings, and other visual materials that help clients understand and approve the proposed solution.
• Provide informed recommendations and design direction rather than relying solely on the client to dictate every product or layout decision.
• Support showroom planning, product vignettes, manufacturer presentations, and other design initiatives when needed.
• Serve as a senior design resource for sales representatives and other team members on complex opportunities.

• Develop test fits, furniture plans, workstation typicals, private-office layouts, conference and collaborative spaces, reception areas, ancillary settings, and other workplace applications.
• Specify commercial furniture products, sizes, options, finishes, fabrics, power components, accessories, and related details accurately.
• Work across multiple manufacturers and product lines to develop solutions that meet the client's design, functional, budget, and lead-time requirements.
• Prepare accurate specifications, bills of material, product schedules, and design documentation that can be used for pricing and ordering.
• Coordinate closely with sales and project coordination to ensure design selections are quote-ready and that substitutions or revisions are accurately reflected.
• Review manufacturer and vendor information to confirm product dimensions, application limitations, finish availability, electrical requirements, and other technical details.
• Consider circulation, accessibility, clearances, egress, ergonomics, power/data needs, and applicable workplace planning standards within the project scope.
• Perform site measurements and field verification as needed and identify conditions that may affect the proposed furniture layout.

• Prepare furniture plans, installation plans, elevations, details, renderings, finish documents, and other drawings required to communicate design intent.
• Maintain accurate drawing revisions and ensure approved changes are reflected consistently across plans, specifications, and presentations.
• Participate in project handoff meetings with sales, Project Management, Project Coordination, and installation teams.
• Review installation drawings and project documentation for design accuracy before release.
• Coordinate furniture layouts with architectural conditions, floor boxes, electrical/data locations, columns, doors, glazing, and other site constraints.
• Communicate with architects, contractors, electricians, data teams, property management, and other project partners when coordination is required.
• Support installation and punch-list resolution when field conditions affect the approved design.
• Assist with furniture substitutions or redesign when products become unavailable, lead times change, budgets shift, or site conditions require modification.

• Help establish and maintain drawing…
