Head of Furnishing and Interiors

The Landmark Trust is seeking a Head of Furnishing and Interiors. This senior, permanent position plays an essential role within our organisation, leading on the delivery of one of Landmark’s most defining organisational characteristics – our aesthetic approach. 

By embracing and continuing a distinctive ‘Landmark look’ that has evolved and developed over almost 60 years, you will draw on your outstanding understanding of British architecture and historic interiors to guide all aspects of the interior presentation of more than 200 existing Landmark properties, and lead on the furnishing and interior decoration of several newly-restored buildings each year. 

As well as extensive, hands-on experience of furnishing and decorating historic places, our ideal candidate will bring the sensitivity, enthusiasm, collaborative attitude, and creative talents to carefully steer the development of our interior style into the coming decades. You will have an intelligent, conscientious approach to design and the ability to bring together the romance and character of these exceptional historic places with the practical considerations of a modern self-catering stay, creating beautiful, period-based interiors that are durable, comfortable, and distinctively ‘Landmark’.
