If you're fascinated by how people interact with their environment and you love connecting insights, data, and design to make workplaces work better this role was made for you.

We're looking for a Workplace Strategist & Designer who thrives in that sweet spot between creative problem-solving and analytical thinking. You'll help uncover what organizations really need from their space, then translate those insights into innovative, human-centered solutions.

What You'll Do

  • Lead and support workplace strategy projects from surveys and interviews to utilization studies and visioning sessions.

  • Analyze data and translate it into clear, actionable insights using advanced Excel tools.
  • Coordinate across project teams, consultants, and clients to ensure timely, aligned deliverables.
  • Facilitate workshops and discovery sessions that reveal how people really work and what they need from their environment.
  • Turn research into strategic workplace solutions and early design concepts that align with business goals and culture.

Who You Are

  • You're equal parts strategist and designer – a curious thinker who loves to understand people, solve problems, and tell stories with data.
  • You get energized by discovery: asking great questions, connecting the dots, and seeing how your insights influence real change in the built environment.
  • You're probably early to mid-career, with a few years in workplace design or strategy, ready to expand beyond space planning into the why behind design.
  • You bring structure and creativity to everything you do and you genuinely enjoy collaborating with clients, teammates, and end users.

What You Bring

  • Degree in Interior Design (required)
  • 3–5 years of experience in workplace design or strategy
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD and Excel (pivot tables, data visualization, analysis)
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable leading meetings and presenting ideas
  • Project coordination experience; able to manage multiple priorities at once

Bonus Skills

  • Prosci Change Management Certification or related experience
  • Familiarity with Revit, SketchUp, or other design software
  • Knowledge of workplace trends, behavioural insights, or organizational psychology
  • Curiosity about the future of work and how culture shapes space

Why You'll Love It

  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits
  • Opportunities for professional growth and learning
  • Collaborative, people-first culture that values both creativity and strategy
  • A chance to help organizations reimagine what the workplace can be
