Ready to Move from Top Performer to Team Leader?

You've spent the last few years mastering the craft of design sales while closing confidently, building client trust, and consistently hitting your numbers. Now you're asking: what's next? This is that next step. We're looking for an experienced Design Consultant who's ready to stop just executing the playbook and start helping to build it in the Chicago market. You'll partner directly with the business owner to sharpen and scale a proven, client-first sales process, with a clear path to a leadership role as the team grows around you.

What this actually looks like day-to-day:

You'll run in-home design consultations, guiding homeowners through one of the most personal purchasing decisions they'll make. This isn't transactional selling it's consultative, relationship-driven work where your design instincts and sales skills both matter.

What sets this opportunity apart:

  • Direct partnership with ownership - your ideas and performance will actually be seen and acted on, we're one team with a clear vision
  • A defined leadership track, not a vague "growth opportunity"
  • A structured, proven sales process to build on, not start from scratch
  • 3-month paid training before transitioning to commission, so you ramp with confidence
  • Earning potential directly tied to your performance and the overall success of the business - high output, high reward

You're likely the right fit if you:

Have 25 years of design sales or in-home sales experience, a track record of strong closes and satisfied clients, and you're hungry to build something, not just sell something.

Requirements:

  • Sales Experience - design experience is a plus!
  • Proficiency in technology and ability to understand design software
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team
  • Detail-oriented with a focus on quality and customer satisfaction
  • Passion for design

Responsibilities:

  • Meet with clients to understand their vision, needs, and preferences for a dream home storage space
  • Design custom closets and spaces using our industry leading design software
  • Provide estimates and proposals for custom closet systems
  • Collaborate with the installation team to ensure accurate and efficient installation
  • Provide exceptional customer service and communication throughout the design and installation process
  • Maintain a safe and organized work environment
  • Follow company policies and procedures related to design and customer service

Compensation:

3 month paid training period followed by un-capped commission based role targeting $100,000+ in annual earnings.
