DLR Group is an integrated design firm with a promise to elevate the human experience through design. This fuels the work we do around the world and inspires our mission to improve the lives of our clients, our communities, and our planet. If this sparks your interest, you’re in the right place.

We have an opening for an Interior Design Inter for the Winter & Spring season. This is not a remote role.

Each person who works at DLR Group has a design voice, and we can’t wait to help you define and amplify yours. Whether it’s through a design charrette, a client meeting, an internal project review, or working through a building detail, you’ll learn the nuts and bolts (ha!) of putting together a building, while being part of something larger than yourself. You will gain experience on projects large and small, in various phases of construction. We also hope to give you experiences outside of the typical internship in your discipline – from helping out on a business development or marketing pursuit, planning an event for your office, or sharing your ideas on what the future of design services looks like.

As a DLR Group Intern, you will be an important part of our integrated design team and will help produce designs for commercial, educational, and municipal buildings of all sizes and complexities. We expect interns to participate in all activities throughout the duration of the program. This is a fantastic opportunity to grow, learn and contribute your design voice to our brand promise of Elevating the Human Experience.

• Participate with other design team members in the integrated design process for various projects
• Learn to use primary design tools such as Revit, Enscape, and proprietary DLR Group design tools and methods
• Assist with the preparation of presentation materials using Adobe Creative Suite
