Original job description

The Wiklém Group is looking for an experienced Intermediate Designer who is ready for greater project ownership and direct involvement with clients, contractors, budgets, procurement, and construction.

We are an award-winning Toronto-based Interior Design and Design+BUILD firm specializing in condominium common-area refurbishment throughout the GTA.

Our designers stay involved from concept and client presentations through documentation, procurement, construction, site coordination, and final installation.

What You’ll Do
  • Develop interior design concepts and carry them through design development and implementation.
  • Prepare finish schemes, material selections, presentations, drawings, specifications, and finish schedules.
  • Work directly with clients and participate in presentations and project meetings.
  • Specify furniture, art, accessories, finishes, and materials.
  • Coordinate procurement, purchasing, delivery, installation, and styling.
  • Work with contractors, trades, suppliers, architects, engineers, and consultants.
  • Participate in budgeting, tendering, pricing reviews, and value engineering.
  • Attend site meetings, review construction progress, and help resolve design and installation issues.
  • Support and mentor junior designers as your responsibilities grow.
What We’re Looking For
  • Approximately 5+ years of professional interior design experience
  • Degree or diploma in Interior Design
  • Strong AutoCAD skills
  • Experience taking interior design projects from concept through documentation and construction
  • Strong design, materials, and presentation skills
  • Experience working directly with clients, contractors, suppliers, and trades
  • Experience specifying and procuring furniture, art, and accessories
  • ARIDO membership or eligibility for registration is an asset
  • Valid driver’s licence and reliable access to a vehicle

Experience in condominium, multifamily residential, hospitality, retirement/seniors living, or Design+BUILD is particularly relevant.

Why Wiklém

We are a small, collaborative studio where designers have meaningful project ownership, direct client exposure, and the opportunity to stay closely involved from early design through construction and completion.

For someone ready to take the next step, there is strong opportunity to grow into project leadership and increasingly senior responsibilities.

Please apply with your résumé and portfolio, or a link to your online portfolio.
