Design Assistant

Cambridge - Permanent, full-time

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 our 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.

What Benefits we can offer you
At Neptune, we value our employees for always going above and beyond; we reward them by offering more than just a competitive salary:

  • Holiday Allowance
  • New Item & Outlet Discount
  • Full Training Program
