Designer (Office Space)
Elevator Pitch: The Company. Us. Runway East.
Did you want to grow up and work in a boring office? Us neither. At Runway East, we've been on a mission to destroy boring offices since 2014, in whatever size, shape and form they take. Since launching, we now have 14 buildings in London, Bristol and Brighton offering unique flexible office space for teams of 1 - 100 to work in, enjoying everything from dogs on demand to our famed Friday drinks trolley.
Our Runway East team enjoys a bunch of great benefits and unrivalled perks, from private healthcare to team trips abroad. We've also recently become a B Corp and think it's important for our team to give a damn about its impact on the planet and its people.
Runway East has a strong brand, passionate customer base and most importantly, a product members genuinely love. Post-covid the way of working has been flipped upside down and the demand for flexibility is greater than ever. We're ready to take full advantage of that.
Elevator Pitch: The Job. It's a great job. We promise.
We're hiring our first in-house Designer to own the look and feel of Runway East's spaces.
Whilst no two days are the same, your key responsibilities will revolve around:
- New site design - Work alongside D&B contractors and their design teams on new location fit-outs. You'll be RWE's design lead on the client side - reviewing proposals, challenging ideas and protecting our brand identity.
- FF&E specification - Select and specify furniture, fixtures and equipment across new sites, refreshes and office modifications. Build supplier relationships and balance aesthetics with durability, budget and lead times.
- Site spruces and refreshes - Plan and deliver cosmetic upgrades across the portfolio - paint, signage, soft furnishings, lighting, feature walls. Assess what needs attention, create design schemes, and work with the projects team to get it done.
- Space planning management - Brief and manage our outsourced space planning agency. Review layouts for efficiency, member experience and commercial return.
This role is based from our Covent Garden office, 4 days a week. Open to part-time candidates and flexible arrangements.
