Full Job Description

Join the Slingers! Slingshot is seeking an emerging professional Interior Designer I (Interior Design Associate or Interior Designer 1) to join our passionate, purpose-driven studio in Des Moines. We're a small but mighty team of interior designers and architects dedicated to crafting meaningful, human-centered commercial spaces that elevate everyday life and strengthen Midwestern communities. Our work spans architecture, interiors, and urbanism — always with a focus on clarity, precision, and real impact.

As a teaching studio, we value team members who take ownership of their work, grow alongside talented colleagues, and contribute to collaborative excellence. In this role, you'll provide interior design assistance on projects under the direction of mid-to senior-level designers and architects, helping bring concepts to life through thoughtful development, documentation, and team support — with opportunities to build your skills and impact from concept through construction documentation.

What You'll Do

Work under the direction of mid-to senior-level interior designers and architects by providing design assistance with interior development.
Assist with graphic interior story development, including pulling imagery, generating mood boards, sketches, and drawings for concept development.
Document floor plans, ceiling plans, elevations, finish plans, and schedules for construction documentation.
Learn the SSA design process and project software, including ArchiCAD and SketchUp.
Assist the design team with maintaining the BIM library.
Support business development activities with finish boards, presentations, pulling together social media content, meeting note preparation, and more.
Assist in ordering samples for projects.
Attend client meetings and design critiques.
Maintain the interior design library and meet with manufacturer’s representatives to keep knowledge current.

Who We're Looking For: The ideal "Slinger" holds a Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Interior Design (minimum four-year degree) and is on the path to licensure with up to three years of industry experience. You thrive when you:

Are a self-starter who shares our drive for creating meaningful work in a collaborative environment and desires to be part of an enthusiastic and passionate team.
Excel in a fast-paced, small-team setting committed to exceeding expectations daily.
Demonstrate a strong design instinct, generous work approach, and clarity in communication.
Possess working knowledge of the application of color, materials, and aesthetic form.
Have exposure to design specifications and industry standards, including FF&E.
Are familiar with space planning methodology.
Bring basic sketching and rendering skills.
Have working knowledge of construction documentation and procedures.
Possess intermediate MS Office Suite skills and experience in Adobe Creative Suite.
Have strong verbal and written communication skills.

What We Offer

Average 40 hrs work week
Flexible Schedule with 9a-3p core hours
Health Insurance
Dental & Vision Insurance
Life Insurance, STD & LTD covered 100% for employee
Maternity Leave
401k plan with Company Match
Monthly Gym Benefit
Volunteer Time Off
Professional Development Stipend
Leadership Involved In Day-to-Day
A Teaching Studio & Collaborative Environment
Relaxed Dress Code
Dog-Friendly Office
Beverages & Snacks
Quarterly Team Events
Annual Team Celebration

This position is available in our Des Moines studio

*TO BE CONSIDERED, MUST SUBMIT A CURRENT PORTFOLIO*

If you're excited to bring your emerging design talent and passion for interiors to vibrant, community-focused projects in a studio that values personal growth, bold ideas, collaboration, and meaningful impact — we want to meet you!
