  • Proven ability to manage the flow of multiple live projects and meet deadlines
  • A problem-solving mindset,  practical, efficient, and comfortable making decisions
  • Strong technical ability, able to produce clear, accurate design intent drawing packs
  • Comfortable taking the lead with clients, building trust, and managing day-to-day communications
  • Organised and self-motivated, with the confidence to take responsibility for your time and workflow
  • Experience using AutoCAD for technical drawing and Cinema 4D (C4D) for 3D visualisation (preferred but not essential)
  • Familiarity with FF&E, site coordination, or brand guardianship
  • Uk based, Midlands location preferred but not essential.

 

Why Join Copper & Ash?

This is a genuine opportunity to take the lead, not just in project delivery, but in shaping a client relationship that’s central to our studio’s growth. You’ll be a senior voice in a tight-knit, ambitious team that values initiative, design quality, and meaningful collaboration. We offer a flexible, remote-first working environment within a friendly, supportive team culture.

At Copper & Ash, we don’t do design in isolation, we work closely with our clients to create spaces that reflect their identity and purpose. You’ll see your work come to life and be part of a team that cares about getting it right.
