Showroom Sales & Design Consultant Future Showroom Manager
Full-Time | In-Person | Palo Alto, CA
Join One of California's Fastest Growing Luxury Remodeling Showrooms
Vault Studio is looking for an experienced Sales & Design Consultant who understands remodeling—not just sales.
This is not an entry-level sales position. We're looking for someone with at least 5 years of experience in kitchen & bath remodeling, interior design, finish materials, or residential construction sales.
The ideal candidate understands how a remodel comes together, can confidently guide clients through product selections, and takes ownership of every opportunity from the first conversation to the final sale.
If you're highly organized, proactive, accountable, and want to grow into managing a showroom and leading a sales team, we'd love to meet you.
What You'll Do
- Welcome clients into the showroom and create an exceptional first impression.
- Understand each client's project, goals, budget, timeline, and design vision.
- Guide homeowners through selecting cabinetry, countertops, flooring, appliances, plumbing fixtures, windows, doors, fireplaces, and other finish materials.
- Build complete, accurate proposals that balance design, functionality, and budget.
- Actively manage and follow up on every lead until a decision is made.
- Coordinate with designers, contractors, architects, and project managers.
- Develop relationships with local builders, architects, interior designers, and real estate professionals.
- Stay organized, communicate proactively, and ensure clients always know the next step.
- Represent Vault Studio with professionalism, urgency, and attention to detail.

- Strong understanding of how residential remodeling projects are planned and executed.
- Proven sales experience with the ability to close projects and build lasting client relationships.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills.
- Highly organized with exceptional follow-through.
The Type of Person Who Succeeds Here
We're looking for someone who is:
- Extremely accountable — owns responsibilities and follows through without being reminded.
- Sharp and quick-thinking — able to solve problems and make good decisions under pressure.
- Responsive and proactive — communicates early instead of reacting late.
- Detail-oriented and organized.
- Self-motivated with a strong work ethic.
- Professional, positive, and confident with clients.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where priorities change quickly.

If you're ambitious and willing to earn that opportunity, we'll invest in your growth.
