Own end-to-end design delivery for hospitality projectsguiding concept through construction documentswhile mentoring a team member with strong CAD/3D skills (e.g., AutoCAD, SketchUp,Lumion/Enscape, V-Ray) and balanced creative/technical abilities. Youll ensure brand compliance, drawing quality, accurate take-offs/room matrices, and airtight FF&E specifications aligned to budgets and timelines. Design Implementation: Translate briefs/Design Direction into spatial concepts; validate layouts, adjacencies, and guest-flow for rooms and public areas. Quality Control (QC): Review/mark-up plans, elevations, sections, joinery details, and coordinated MEP/electrical layouts. FF&E/Specs: Oversee room matrices, furniture take-offs, and coordinate with specification packages - confirm fit via CAD against clearances/ergonomics. 3D & Visualization: Set visual standards; review 3D models, materiality, lighting, renders, and virtual walkthroughs for sign-off. Budget & Program: Align specifications to target budgets; sequence deliverables; manage design schedules and revision logs. Knowledge on technical and performance standards to be able toprovide Value Engineered options. Standards & Compliance: Enforce brand standards/ local codes, accessibility norms, and client SOPs; maintain a living standards library. Vendor & Stakeholder Coordination: Interface with Natson Development, and key vendors; support VE (value engineering) without losing intent. People Management: Coach designers with structured reviews, redlines, checklists, and skills development plans.Core Responsibilities Issue and own Design Basis Reports, Material/Finish Schedules, Room Data Sheets, Door/Hardware Schedules, and Mock-up Evaluations. Approve room matrices and FF&E take-offs; ensure Excel trackers are complete, version controlled, and audit-ready. Gatekeep spec software outputs (nomenclature, finishes, codes, warranty notes, fire ratings, installation notes). Validate CAD dimensional fit for all furniture, joinery, and equipment; coordinate with structural/MEP for penetrations and power/data. Direct render/animation pipelines; set scene, camera paths, and review turnarounds for client presentations. Run design risk registers, assumption logs, and change control; keep decisions traceable.
