Job Description

Senior Kitchen Designer – Luxury Custom Cabinetry

The Kitchenworks | Fort Lauderdale, FL

Compensation: $65,000 – $150,000+ (Commission program with guaranteed base + full benefits)

About Us

For over 36 years, The Kitchenworks has designed bespoke kitchens for South Florida's most discerning clients. We're the exclusive regional dealer for Dutch Made Custom Cabinetry (along with many other brands) and authorized purveyors of Sub-Zero, Wolf, Miele, and other fine appliance brands. Our median project runs $100,000+, and our clients expect—and receive—an unparalleled design experience.

We're a family-owned, award-winning firm where designers aren't just drafting kitchens; they're building relationships with architects, builders, and homeowners who value craftsmanship over compromise.

The Role

We're looking for a Senior Kitchen Designer to own projects from first client meeting through final installation. You'll work with high-net-worth clients who care about quality and timeline—not cutting corners on cost. This is a true sales-design hybrid role: you'll meet with in-house leads and venture out to make new leads and connections. You'll create stunning designs, with unique materials and options, and shepherd projects to completion.

What You'll Do

• Meet with prospective clients, understand their vision, and convert opportunities into signed projects
• Design fully custom kitchens, baths, bars, and built-ins using detailed floorplans and elevations
• Price projects accurately using our internal systems and present compelling proposals
• Coordinate with our Design Assistant and Coordinator to manage deliverables, orders, and timelines
• Conduct site visits to assess conditions affecting design and construction
• Build relationships with architects, interior designers, and builders through networking and outreach
• Collaborate with our appliance division to specify premium cooking and refrigeration solutions

Who You Are

• 6+ years designing high-end residential kitchens (luxury market experience strongly preferred)
• Demonstrable Proficiency in Chief Architect, AutoCAD, 2020 Design, or other compatible design softwares
• Confident presenting to affluent clients and explaining design decisions with authority
• Organized enough to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously
• Hungry to sell—this is a commission role, and top performers here earn accordingly
• Bachelor's degree preferred, but proven industry experience matters more

Nice to Have

• Adobe Creative Suite proficiency
• Existing relationships with South Florida architects, designers, or builders

Compensation & Benefits

This is a commission-based position with a guaranteed base salary. Our program features above-market rates—designers who perform here earn into six figures.

Full benefits include:

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Life insurance
• Health savings account
• Generous PTO
• Employee discount
