Collaboration Hub: Liaise with clients, architects, M&E consultants, and suppliers to ensure every detail is perfect.

What We’re Looking For

Working knowledge of CAD, SolidWorks, and Radan (commercial kitchen experience a big plus).

Strong understanding of architectural layouts and construction drawings.

Ability to produce both fabrication-ready designs and high-quality 3D visuals.

Excellent communication skills for client and contractor interaction.

Organised, detail-driven, and able to manage multiple projects.

Why You’ll Love This Role

Get hands-on with prestige kitchen projects for restaurants, hotels, and catering facilities.

Work alongside industry experts who will mentor you through every stage of the design and build process.

Experience the full journey — from first sketch to fully installed kitchen.

Join a friendly, supportive team in a company that values craftsmanship and creativity.
