Design Consultant

On-siteArt & Creative$60k–$72k/moFull-time
About the role
Mitchell Homes has been building homes for more than 34 years, and we just opened a state-of-the-art Design Studio in Belville—a full selections showroom where buyers can see, touch, and compare every finish that goes into their home. We're hiring a Design Consultant to make that room work. This is the best part of the home-building process. Buyers arrive excited, and you turn a floor plan into their home — cabinets, countertops, flooring, tile, lighting, exterior elevations, the whole package. You'll guide them through it, help them spend confidently and within budget, and hand them a selections package our construction team can build from without a single question.
Responsibilities
- Run selections appointments with new-home buyers from start to signed package, typically over two to three sessions per family
- Present and explain the full standard and upgrade catalog — interior and exterior — and make real recommendations rather than just taking orders
- Help buyers balance their wish list against their budget, and show them where an upgrade dollar buys the most impact
- Produce accurate, complete selection sheets and change orders, and hand them cleanly to construction and purchasing
- Merchandise and maintain the studio — keep displays current, samples in stock, and the room looking like the reason we built it
- Meet with vendor reps to stay current on new products, and bring the good ones to us
- Partner with our sales team on buyer handoffs and keep selections on schedule so starts don't slip
Benefits
- A brand-new studio you'll have real ownership of, including how it's merchandised
- A stable, family-run builder with 34 years behind it — not a start-up, and not a national with a call center
- 401(k) with company match, health / dental / vision, HSA and FSA, life insurance, paid time off, paid training, and an employee discount on a Mitchell home
- Real growth — we're expanding in the Wilmington market and want someone who grows with the studio
