About The Position

At Wayfair, we believe a home should be as functional as it is beautiful-and that starts with great design. As a Sr. Retail Designer of Cabinetry and Home Renovation, you'll turn customer visions into reality, guiding them through their renovation journey with confidence, creativity, and care. From kitchens and bathrooms to laundry rooms and custom built-ins, you'll craft smart, stylish spaces that reflect each customer's goals, budget, and style. You'll tap into your expertise in cabinetry, bath, and kitchen design. You'll lean into Wayfair's expansive product catalog from cabinetry and tile to flooring and plumbing to provide complete solutions for DIY homeowners and professional contractors alike. If you're a proactive problem-solver with a passion for design and sales, and you love seeing a great project come to life, this is your stage.

Design Experience: 3+ years of experience in kitchen, bath, cabinetry, or home renovation design. You know your way around spatial planning, product selection, and what works (and what wows). Bonus points for 1-2 years focused on cabinetry.
Technical Proficiency: You're confident working in 2020 Design software. Familiarity with CRM/POS systems (like Salesforce) helps too.
Sales Know-How: You've got a track record of meeting or beating your sales goals-and you know how to build trust while selling big ideas and beautiful designs.
Flexible Schedule: Retail hours mean nights, weekends, and holidays. You're ready to show up when your customers need you most.
Educational Background: A Bachelor's degree or college diploma in a related field is preferred, but your experience and design sensibility speak volumes.
Leadership + Training Experience: If you've mentored or trained others in a retail or design setting, even better! You know how to lift up your team and lead by example.
End-to-End Product Knowledge: You bring the full package-from cabinetry to tile-and have the confidence to guide customers through every step.
Collaborative Spirit: You thrive in a team-focused environment and take pride in supporting your peers just as much as your customers.
