Role Overview
We are looking for a Bangkok based Interior Designer with a strong focus on F&B and hospitality projects, who will work closely with both the local Bangkok team and our Dubai office.
The ideal candidate should be confident working on restaurants, bars, lounges and hotel F&B environments, with a good understanding of front of house planning, bar layouts, kitchen coordination, service areas, joinery details and operational flow.
This role will support hospitality and F&B projects across different stages of development, working as part of our expanding Thailand presence while remaining closely connected to our Dubai team and wider regional project workflow. As we continue to grow in Thailand, with the future opening of a local office, this position will play an important role in strengthening our technical design and documentation capabilities on the ground.
We are looking for someone who can bring practical F&B knowledge into the 3D modeling and documentation process, reducing the need for constant supervision and helping ensure that design intent, technical details and operational requirements are properly translated into clear, coordinated drawings and visualizations. An openness to AI-assisted design workflows and emerging tools is strongly encouraged. The ideal candidate should be detail oriented, technically strong and comfortable coordinating with designers, consultants, contractors and site teams.
Key Responsibilities
3D Modeling and Documentation
- Develop and maintain detailed 3D models for F&B and hospitality interior spaces, primarily using SketchUp, with AutoCAD used for technical coordination and Revit where project requirements demand it
- Prepare technical drawings, detail design packages, schedules and documentation that reflect the approved design intent
- Support the production of accurate plans, elevations, sections, details, joinery drawings and coordination drawings
- Use SketchUp Layout and AutoCAD where required to support project documentation and coordination; Revit may be used on select projects
- Ensure 3D models clearly capture spatial planning, technical details, material intent and operational requirements; leverage AI tools (such as image generation, AI rendering or space planning assistants) to support and accelerate the design communication process
F&B Design Development Support
- Work closely with the interior design team to translate sketches, layouts and design concepts into accurate 3D models using SketchUp and supporting tools
- Support the development of restaurant, bar, lounge and hotel F&B projects from concept through to detailed design
- Apply practical understanding of front of house areas, bar counters, service stations, kitchen interfaces, circulation and operational flow
- Help ensure that F&B planning requirements are reflected correctly in drawings and documentation with limited supervision; use AI-assisted tools where applicable to improve speed and output quality
- Assist in developing clear documentation that can be understood by clients, consultants, contractors and operators
Coordination and Collaboration
- Coordinate with architects, engineers, kitchen consultants, contractors and suppliers to ensure design information is accurate and aligned across disciplines
- Support the Bangkok based team and Dubai office with day to day project coordination and technical documentation
- Participate in internal and external project meetings where technical input is required
- Help identify and resolve drawing, model or coordination issues in a timely and practical manner
- Coordinate closely with design and project teams to ensure 3D models and drawings remain aligned with the latest design direction and project requirements
Site Coordination
- Support communication between the design team and on site construction teams in Thailand
- Attend site visits in Bangkok and other project locations where required
- Review site conditions against design documents and assist in resolving technical issues during implementation
- Coordinate with contractors and site teams to ensure design details are executed in line with the approved documentation, quality expectations and project standards
- Provide practical support during construction where F&B layouts, bar details, joinery, service areas or site conditions require clarification
Quality Control and Technical Standards
- Review and update 3D models to ensure accuracy, consistency and compliance with project requirements
- Carry out regular checks on drawings and model information before issue
- Maintain clear file structures, drawing standards and documentation workflows
- Ensure project outputs follow internal company standards and relevant local requirements in Thailand where applicable
- Check that key F&B operational elements are properly coordinated, including service circulation, bar and kitchen interfaces, equipment zones and front of house layouts
Project Support and Continuous Improvement
- Provide 3D modeling and visualization support to the wider project team across design, documentation and construction stages
- Contribute to improving internal SketchUp workflows, templates and documentation systems; explore and integrate AI tools that can add value to the team's design and production process
- Stay updated on 3D modeling tools, AI design applications, technical design practices and interior documentation standards
- Support the growth of the Thailand team by bringing strong technical knowledge, collaboration and attention to detail
- Help strengthen the team's F&B documentation and visualization capability through practical project experience, technical input and a willingness to adopt new tools and AI-assisted workflows
Candidate Profile
- Based in Bangkok, Thailand
- Able to work closely with both the Bangkok team and Dubai office
- Strong working knowledge of SketchUp, including SketchUp Layout for documentation; experience with AutoCAD is expected; familiarity with Revit is an advantage
- Proven experience working on restaurants, bars, lounges, hotel F&B venues or similar hospitality interiors
- Good understanding of front of house layouts, bar planning, kitchen coordination, service stations, back of house interfaces and operational circulation
- Experience in technical documentation, detail design and construction drawings
- Ability to translate F&B design intent into accurate 3D models, visualizations and technical documentation with limited supervision
- Good understanding of interior architecture, joinery, materials and construction detailing
- Ability to coordinate with designers, consultants, kitchen consultants, contractors and site teams
- Able to work independently while collaborating closely with a local and regional team
- Good communication skills in English are required
- Thai language skills are an advantage
- Familiarity with AI design tools (such as Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, generative rendering platforms or AI-assisted space planning tools) is a strong advantage; a curiosity and willingness to adopt emerging AI workflows is equally valued
