INTERIOR DESIGNER — RESIDENTIAL REMODELING / DESIGN-BUILD

$70,000–$85,000 | Full-Time | Monday–Friday | Reston, VA

For the designer who wants to actually see their work built. A lot of interior design roles stop at selections and renderings. At Synergy, you see it all the way through — from the first client conversation to the finished installation.

A lot of interior design roles stop at selections and renderings. At Synergy, you see it all the way through — from the first client conversation to the finished installation.

Synergy Design & Construction is an established, award-winning residential design-build remodeling firm in Reston, VA. For 18 years, we've been creating high-quality kitchens, bathrooms, basements and whole-home renovations throughout Northern Virginia.

Our integrated design-build model means our designers work directly with clients and collaborate closely with our production team throughout construction. Your designs don't disappear into a set of drawings — you get to see them become real.

WHY DESIGNERS THRIVE HERE

• Your designs get built — the right way. Our production team is in the field ensuring design intent carries through to installation. You're not handing off a package and hoping for the best.

• You'll have what you need to do great work. Established vendor, showroom and trade partner relationships throughout Northern Virginia, along with structured systems and documentation.

• Consistent, meaningful work. A stable project pipeline means you're working on real residential renovations rather than constantly chasing the next project.

• Real career growth. We're looking for someone who wants to become an important long-term member of a small, experienced team.

• Flexibility when the work allows. This is primarily an in-person, collaborative role in Reston, with some flexibility for remote work when your project schedule allows.

• No nights or weekends. Monday–Friday schedule.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Guide clients through the full design and selections process, including cabinetry, flooring, tile, plumbing fixtures, lighting, hardware, countertops and surface materials

• Develop cohesive design packages and lead client presentations and selection meetings

• Coordinate sourcing, showroom visits, vendor communication, pricing verification, ordering and delivery tracking

• Maintain accurate finish schedules and project documentation from selection through installation

• Conduct site visits to verify installations and maintain design integrity

• Collaborate with the production team to resolve field conditions and ensure design intent is executed correctly

• Manage multiple active projects and keep selections, decisions and deadlines moving

• Support professional project photography and portfolio development

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 5+ years of interior design experience in residential remodeling, renovation or design-build — not commercial design or new construction

• Demonstrated experience with kitchen, bathroom and/or whole-home remodeling projects

• Strong knowledge of residential finish materials, fixtures and cabinetry

• Strong client-facing presence — you're comfortable leading meetings, guiding decisions and building trust with homeowners

• Strong design instincts combined with excellent attention to detail

• Ability to manage multiple active projects without dropping details

• Highly organized with strong documentation and follow-through

• Comfortable collaborating with project managers, carpenters, vendors and trade partners

• Tech-savvy and comfortable learning new systems and incorporating AI tools into your workflow

• A portfolio demonstrating residential design work you're proud of

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

• $70,000–$85,000, based on experience

• Health, dental & vision insurance

• 401(k)

• Paid time off & company holidays

• Flexible Spending Account

• Mileage reimbursement

• Referral program

• Monday–Friday schedule — no evenings or weekends

TO APPLY

Submit your resume along with a portfolio highlighting residential remodeling or renovation work. We'd especially like to see kitchens, bathrooms, material selections and completed installations.

We review every application personally.

Candidates must be able to reliably commute to Reston, VA.
