Are you a highly creative Senior Interior Designer with a passion for storytelling through space and a proven track record in hospitality interiors? This is your opportunity to join a globally recognised, Birmingham-based design studio delivering world-class hospitality, FB and leisure environments for some of the industry’s most exciting brands.

Modus Careers is proud to partner with this well-established and design-led studio, known for its bold creative direction, collaborative culture, and people-first approach. With projects spanning the UK, Europe and the US, they are now looking for a Senior Interior Designer to lead conceptually rich, detail-driven projects within their fast-growing international portfolio.

What Makes This Role Stand Out?
• Global Projects: Work across a wide-ranging portfolio of restaurants, hotels, and hospitality venues for international clients and emerging FB brands.
• Creative Leadership: Take the reins on projects from day one, guiding concepts, managing teams and inspiring fresh design thinking.
• Hybrid Flexibility: Enjoy a balanced, people-focused culture with flexibility to work from home and in-studio.
• Collaborative Culture: Be part of a close-knit team of designers, architects and brand strategists, where open thinking and experimentation are encouraged.
• Career Longevity: While this role initially supports maternity cover, the studio is actively looking to grow long-term and is open to permanent progression for the right individual.

Key Responsibilities
• Lead concept creation and project delivery across multiple high-profile hospitality and FB interiors
• Own the design process from initial briefing through to client presentation and on-site execution
• Present to clients, develop strong relationships and translate their vision into intelligent, expressive interiors
• Collaborate with cross-disciplinary internal teams to ensure cohesive creative execution
• Manage junior and mid-level team members with a focus on mentorship and excellence
• Oversee detailed drawing packages and FFE specifications, ensuring precision at every stage
• Inject fresh ideas into design sessions, always pushing creative boundaries

About You
• At least 6 years' experience in interior design, with a portfolio that showcases hospitality and FB interiors
• Confident project leader with a collaborative and proactive mindset
• Strong communicator who enjoys engaging with clients and internal teams
• Excellent technical understanding, particularly in AutoCAD, and a solid grasp of FFE and material specification
• Passionate about narrative-led design and building immersive guest experiences
• Able to confidently lead creative reviews, manage timelines and maintain design integrity from concept through to delivery

The Offer
• Full-time, permanent position with a competitive salary of £45,000 – £55,000, depending on experience
• A hybrid working model and a studio culture built around flexibility and creative freedom
• The chance to work on award-winning hospitality projects across international markets
• A highly supportive and engaging working environment where your input will shape creative direction
• Real scope for growth within a respected, people-led design practice
