Habitude Interiors is seeking an experienced Senior Designer to join our team
As a Senior Designer, you will work under the creative direction of Jennifer Felts, Habitude’s Founder and Principal Designer. You will also work with our design team, a variety of collaborators and partners, as well as clients, who live in or around the Carolinas, specifically Charlotte, North Carolina.
The expectation for this role is that you are capable of managing every aspect of the design process from idea to installation, while also keeping a pulse on the business. This role requires someone who is strong at seeing both the big picture and the detail; the creative and the technical; the power of relationship-building through delivering exceptional service and value with both creative partners and clients.
Stylistically, you should be passionate about thoughtful, modern design, but always open to a client’s style, vision, and definition of home.
We are known for our clean and modern, casual and confident vibe.
This position presents a unique opportunity for the right person to become a leader and partner in the Habitude Interiors business.
MEET HABITUDE INTERIORS

Habitude’s purpose is to inspire and elevate; to provide thoughtful and modern options beyond what is conventional or expected; all while staying true to the architecture and style of a home and neighborhood. We never lose sight of a family’s essential character. We love that every home and family is different, and each space must be their space.
We work in a fun, flexible environment, but the pace is fast, and our time, attention, and energy spans multiple projects with deadlines happening simultaneously. You must be ready to multitask and manage both the big deadlines and the small details. We value driven people and partners who take initiative and are fueled with a self-starter energy and strong work ethic.
