Drafting, Interior Design, and Architecture

Need a Designer or Drafter Who Gets the Build, Not Just the Brief? We’ve Got Them

When you’re hiring for drafting or design, the last thing you want is a pretty folio and no clue how it comes together on site. We help you find people who know the trade and design with the end build in mind.
Why Joinery and Fitout Design Needs a Different Kind of Recruiter
You’re not hiring for a creative agency. You’re building kitchens, homes, commercial spaces, showrooms and offices. That means your drafter, or designer needs to speak production, not just presentation. We get that. Because we live it. Our recruitment team specialises in technical drafting and hands-on design for the joinery and fitout world. Whether you need a Cabinet Vision gun, an AutoCAD all-rounder, or someone who knows how to draw curves and nest them right, we’ll find them.

Who We Help You Hire

  • Joinery Drafters with hands-on trade experience
  • Cabinet Vision, AutoCAD, and Microvellum specialists
  • Interior designers who understand production
  • Client-facing architects who manage end to end
  • Hybrid design/project roles with quoting or site co-ordination
  • Juniors with potential or seniors with systems mastery

From Workshop to Workspace, We Understand the Skillsets

The best drafters we place have touched the tools. They’ve worked the bench, run a CNC, or built what they now draw. That’s why they can solve problems before they hit the floor. We also recruit interior architects who understand how a clean design becomes a real fitout safely, compliantly, and to spec. You won’t have to explain site access or substrate limitations. They already get it.

Case Study: From Machinist to Drafter at a Leading Fitout Firm

A female machinist came to us with strong factory experience and a drive to grow into drafting. We found the perfect fit a commercial exhibitions and fitout firm with long-tenure staff and a strong mentorship culture. She’s now off the tools and thriving in a drafting pathway role, contributing to high-end builds and learning every week. That’s the kind of match we create.

Another Client Example: In-House Interior Architect for a National Brand Fitout Firm

A design-to-delivery fitout company came to us wanting to bring their design function in-house. They needed someone who could handle concept, compliance, and client expectations across multi-site office fitouts for major brands. We delivered an interior architect who could do it all bringing creative and technical skills together while aligning with their workflow and culture.

Whether You’re Hiring for Precision, Presentation, or Both, We’ve Got You Covered
