Company Description:
The Design Story is a luxury bespoke furniture and interiors studio based in Delhi NCR, crafting spaces and pieces for clients who value authenticity, craftsmanship, and considered design. We don't do off-the-shelf — everything we make is built to brief, built to last, and built with intention. With a strong presence across Delhi NCR and Goa, we work across high-end residential, villa, and developer projects. We're a founder-led business in an active growth phase — opening a flagship show home in Gurugram — and the people who join us now will help shape what we become.

Role Description:
This is a full-time, on-site role for a Studio Head (Founder's Office), based in New Delhi. You will be the most senior operational person in the studio below the founders — the main point of contact across design, clients, and production. This role is primarily furniture-centric — you must have deep knowledge of bespoke furniture design, materials, finishes, and production. You'll lead all designers, own client relationships end to end, support pre and post sales processes,



and liaise with production, QC, and procurement to ensure delivery standards are met. This is not a passive management role — we need someone who leads with ownership, passion, and accountability every single day.

Qualifications:
7+ years in luxury bespoke furniture and interiors — with a robust portfolio in furniture-heavy projects
Deep knowledge of furniture materials, finishes, joinery, upholstery, and production processes — you understand how pieces are actually made
Proven experience leading a design team — setting direction, reviewing work, maintaining quality standards
Strong client-facing skills — comfortable in rooms with HNI clients, able to handle briefings, presentations, difficult conversations, and closing
Involvement in pre-sales and post-sales — from lead handling and client pitches to post-delivery follow-up and relationship management
Working understanding of production an
