The role
Our Story
Founded in 1996 by friends John Sims-Hilditch and Giles Redman, Neptune design and make pieces for your whole home. Recognised for their exacting standards, design-led aesthetic and expert craftsmanship, they're perhaps most known for kitchens - with heirloom-worthy dressers not far behind. Neptune's trademark 'look' is British: refined, simple, sturdy, and with an almost obsessive attention to detail. They're also respected for their commitment to craft and quality. Put simply, they make things they're proud of, and that are designed to last a lifetime.
As we continue to grow we are looking for a new Design Assistant to support out Designers. Our Design Assistants are really busy people, skilled in juggling lots of projects as part of our Kitchen Design Services.
Responsibilities include:
- Review and revise CAD-based designs and quotations
- Put together design quotes and presentation packs
- Manage and progress multiple design projects, working closely with the design and installation project management teams
- Update and maintain accurate customer records using a number of software packages
- Continually build your Neptune product and system knowledge and support the wider store team in their design and system development too
- Actively contribute to the growth and development of the store
Our stores are open 7 days a week and so it's important that you'll have flexibility to work during the week and at weekends also.
Neptune Fulham was our very-first London store to open. Forming the ground floor of a red-brick townhouse, it's based on the bustling Wandsworth Bridge Road but towards the slightly quieter, residential end. After all, we try to make our stores feel more like homes than shops. It's still easy to reach by underground, overground or bus though. A terrace with classic railings and greenery-filled planters will greet you on arrival, and worry not, you'll be able to easily spot us as you come down the street - just look out for the flags.
