About This Opportunity

A highly respected luxury custom home builder with deep roots in Middle Tennessee is looking for a talented and driven Senior Interior Designer & Design Liaison to join their close-knit, collaborative team. Operating primarily across Williamson and Davidson Counties, this builder is known for producing approximately 15 exceptional high-end homes per year — a mix of stunning spec and fully custom residences that regularly generate significant social media attention and industry recognition.

This is a rare opportunity to join a stable, reputable company where your work is truly showcased. You won't be one designer among many — your fingerprints will be on some of the most beautiful homes being built in Middle Tennessee today. If you're a design professional who wants creative ownership, meaningful collaboration, and a team that genuinely invests in the people who show up every day, this role was built for you.

What You'll Do

You’ll own the interior design process for approximately half of the builder’s annual homes from concept through completion, while also serving as the key coordination point for third-party designers on the remaining projects. Your work ensures every home meets the builder’s high standards — in design, documentation, and delivery.

Core Responsibilities:

• Develop complete interior design packages including finish selections, color palettes, layouts, and full design documentation
• Collaborate with and provide guidance to third‑party interior designers to ensure alignment with builder standards and project timelines
• Produce paint schedules, interior trim packages, exterior color selections, and comprehensive finish documentation
• Issue RFQs to builder vendors and review quotes for accuracy and scope
• Monitor deadlines for off‑site custom builds and support external designers as needed
• Prepare permit applications, HOA submissions, and DRC documentation
• Serve as a design ambassador for the builder’s brand — both internally and externally

What We’re Looking For

• 3–5 years of professional residential interior design experience, ideally with a builder or high‑end residential design firm
• A strong portfolio that demonstrates residential design capability across a range of styles and scopes
• A collaborative mindset — you work with people, not just alongside them
• Strong organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail
• Excellent communication and follow‑through — you don’t let things fall through the cracks
• Comfort working in a fast‑paced construction environment where priorities can shift
• Must be based in the Nashville/Middle Tennessee area or willing to relocate
• Must be able to work on‑site in Brentwood four days per week

What We Offer

• Salary: $65,000–$85,000 depending on experience
• Health Insurance
• 15 Days PTO
• Technology Reimbursement
• Mileage Reimbursement
• A collaborative, family‑oriented team culture where your work is valued and visible
• Consistent exposure to high‑profile luxury builds with strong social media presence
• Stable, established company with a strong pipeline of exciting projects
