KLS Interiors is seeking an installations coordinator to join its team in London.
We are currently recruiting for an experienced installations coordinator to work at our busy soft furnishings business in northwest London. We work with trade businesses within the interiors industry, many of whom we have long standing relationships with, crafting bespoke curtains and blinds, bed dressings, headboards, re-upholstery and cushions for residential and commercial projects both in the UK and overseas.
The successful candidate will be working within our office team and be solely responsible for our fitters’ schedules. You will be liaising directly with our installation team, clients and suppliers, working seamlessly to schedule new and existing installations through to completion.
