Job Description

Kitchen & Bath Designer / Showroom Sales Consultant

Decorative Plumbing, Lighting & Hardware

Bath & Bronze | Irmo, South Carolina

Bath & Bronze, Irmo's premier destination for high-end plumbing, lighting, and hardware, is seeking a talented Kitchen & Bath Designer / Showroom Sales Consultant to join our growing team. This isn't just another design role; it's your chance to create luxury spaces that transform how people live, while building meaningful relationships with clients who value craftsmanship and style.

You'll create comprehensive kitchen and bath designs encompassing cabinetry, countertops, decorative plumbing, lighting, and hardware, while supporting our showroom sales team. This role is ideal for those who excel where creative design meets exceptional client service

What Makes You a Great Fit

• You're passionate about design. Kitchens and baths aren't just rooms to you; they're opportunities to blend form and function in ways that elevate daily living. You obsess over the details that make a space exceptional
• You're a natural communicator. Whether you're presenting concepts to homeowners, collaborating with builders, or guiding a walk-in client through fixture selections, you connect authentically and make complex decisions feel effortless
• You balance vision with reality. You know how to honor a client's aesthetic dreams while respecting budget constraints and technical feasibility. You're a problem-solver who finds creative solutions, not roadblocks
• You're adaptable and proactive. You're equally comfortable diving deep into a complex design project or pivoting to assist showroom visitors. You pitch in wherever needed without being asked, because you see the bigger picture
• You bring humility and hustle. You're confident in your expertise but never too proud to learn, collaborate, or roll up your sleeves. You understand that great design is a team effort

The Experience We're Looking For

Required:

• Proven track record in residential interior design, with a focus on kitchens and bathrooms
• Experience in a showroom, design studio, or high-end client-facing retail environment
• Strong knowledge of luxury fixtures, lighting, and hardware
• Proficiency in design software (SketchUp, AutoCAD, or similar platforms)

Bonus Points:

• Familiarity with HubSpot, SpecsBuilder, or other project management tools
• Experience coordinating with vendors and managing product specifications
• Established relationships within the building and design community

Your Day-to-Day Responsibilities

Design & Client Collaboration

• Create comprehensive kitchen and bath designs, including cabinetry, surfaces, fixtures, and finishes
• Guide clients from initial concept through final product selection with expertise and enthusiasm
• Develop mood boards, space plans, and curated product pairings that tell a cohesive story
• Ensure design feasibility by collaborating closely with contractors and project managers

Showroom Sales & Support

• Welcome and consult with walk-in visitors, helping them discover products that fit their vision
• Convert inquiries into satisfied clients through attentive service and product knowledge
• Support inside sales activities, including quotes, follow-ups, and order processing
