  • Facilitate cross-functional brainstorming and strategy sessions that improve stakeholder alignment, creative direction, and project outcomes
  • Establish and maintain clear workflows, processes, and communication standards that create transparency around intake, timelines, workload, deliverables, and project status
  • Continuously evaluate and improve visualization tools, processes, and outputs to enhance efficiency, effectiveness, and creative advancement
  • Partner with Sales, Design, and leadership to plan experience center environments that showcase furniture, finishes, architectural products, technology solutions, and dancker’s integrated capabilities
  • Support experience center updates and refreshes to maintain relevance, functionality, and alignment with evolving workplace trends
  • Monitor recurring themes, project feedback, and delivery outcomes to identify opportunities to improve process clarity, visual quality, and stakeholder satisfaction

  • Direct professional experience in workplace interiors, including FF&E selection, specification, and application
  • Demonstrated experience leading teams, including external or distributed visualization resources
  • 5+ years of professional interior design experience, with a strong focus on workplace environments and FF&E
  • Experience coordinating with external partners or contract resources while maintaining clear direction, consistent expectations, and strong output quality
