Funkit designs short-term rentals across the US.
Funkit designs short-term rentals across the US. Hiring an Interior Designer on a 3-month contract at full-time hours, fully remote. The spread on pay is wide because we hire globally. Possibility of continuing past the three months depending on performance and workload - not presenting it as guaranteed.
Responsibilities:
- Space planning for full properties - layouts, circulation, sleeping arrangements, how a group actually uses a house
- Select furniture, materials, finishes, lighting and decor to a budget from US vendors
- Develop a concept that answers the specific property and its target guest, then carry it through every room
- Build and present in SketchUp and Photoshop at a standard a client can approve from
- Produce documentation clean enough that shopping sheets and install guides come out of it
Requirements:
- Background in interior design, architecture or closely related, with projects you can walk us through
- Strong SketchUp, comfortable in Photoshop
- Real command of colour and pattern - our properties are bold and a neutral-only portfolio is a hard sell
- Judgement about scale, materials and finishes
- Comfort designing to a budget and a deadline
- Fluent English, overlap with US Central
Nice to have: Short-term rental or hospitality experience is a plus, not a requirement.
Benefits:
- Base of $1,000-3,000 USD/month, set at the interview depending on the contract, your experience and the hours you take on
- Possibility of continuing past the 3-month contract depending on performance and workload
