Every finish and piece of furniture on our projects has to be sourced, ordered, shipped and installed, and you'll
be in charge of making that happen. You'll find suppliers and makers in India and abroad, negotiate prices and lead times, and follow every order until it's on site. Projects usually run from ₹10 crore to ₹90 crore, so there's a lot to keep track of and the details matter.
 



ABOUT INTERIORS WITH ART 

Interiors With Art has been designing and building luxury homes, palaces and hotels for 24 years, for private clients around the world. We've recently opened offices in Delhi and Chennai and set up a joint venture with Sotheby's International Realty India, and the team here is growing quickly. Behind the scenes we're changing how the business runs too. We build a lot of our own technology and we want people who'll help us keep improving how we work. 



WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR 

We like people who question things. If something has always been done one way and you can see a better way, we want to hear about it. It's a fun team to be part of and people work hard. Things move quickly because we're growing and changing at the same time. 

We're happy to try new software, and if it makes the work better or quicker, we keep it. There's not much hierarchy and very little corporate process, so ideas get heard whoever they come from. You'll work with the team both in India and abroad 



WHAT YOU'LL DO 

  • Source and manage suppliers, vendors and manufacturers for FF&E, finishes and materials, in India and internationally. 
  • Handle procurement for hard items (stone, tile, joinery, flooring, sanitaryware) and soft items (furniture, fabrics, lighting, accessories). 
  • Negotiate pricing, lead times and terms, then manage purchase orders through to delivery and installation. 
  • Coordinate international shipping, customs and local logistics, including storage and site deliveries. 
  • Track budgets and procurement schedules against project timelines, keep trackers accurate and flag risks early. 
  • Manage samples and approvals, and visit factories and suppliers to check quality where needed. 
  • Work closely with designers, the quantity surveyor and site teams so what's specified is exactly what gets ordered. 
  • Build and maintain long-term supplier relationships in India and internationally. 



WHAT YOU'LL BRING 

  • At least 3 to 5 years in procurement for luxury interiors, fit-out, hospitality or similar. 
  • Experience buying both hard and soft items, locally in India and internationally. 
  • Strong Excel skills (essential). 
  • Experience with procurement software such as Programa, Estimax or Studio Designer is helpful. 
  • Very detail oriented. You're the one who spots the wrong finish code. 
  • Confident negotiating, with good knowledge of the Indian supply chain and international luxury brands. 
  • Openness to AI and new tools that make procurement faster and more accurate.

What you need to know about the Chennai Tech Scene

To locals, it's no secret that South India is leading the charge in big data infrastructure. While the environmental impact of data centers has long been a concern, emerging hubs like Chennai are favored by companies seeking ready access to renewable energy resources, which provide more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. As a result, Chennai, along with neighboring Bengaluru and Hyderabad, is poised for significant growth, with a projected 65 percent increase in data center capacity over the next decade.
