Job Description – Workspace Design Research Assistant

About Zyeta

Zyeta is a global workspace company, the only one of its kind in the world that unites every dimension of the workplace under a single vision. From world-class design and design & build delivery, to coworking, managed offices, and fit-out funding solutions, Zyeta offers an unmatched, 360° approach to work environments.

We are committed to shaping immersive, future-ready workplaces that inspire people, drive culture, and accelerate growth. With a deep focus on innovation, sustainability, and human-centric design, we don’t just build offices, we engineer experiences that transform the way organizations work, connect, and thrive.

To strengthen our position as a design thought leader, we are seeking a Workspace Design Research Assistant, a passionate professional who can bridge research and practice, enabling Zyeta to stay at the forefront of workspace innovation.

Role Overview

The Workspace Design Research Assistant will be responsible for driving deep research into workspace design, typologies, industry trends, generational and neurodiverse needs, and future strategies. This role goes beyond academic study, translating insights into actionable frameworks, space planning strategies, functionality driven furniture setups, and design excellence standards that influence Zyeta’s day-to-day studio practices.

The individual will also work on publishing thought leadership papers, presenting them at international forums, and shaping Zyeta’s global positioning as a pioneer in workspace innovation.

Key Responsibilities

Research & Knowledge Building

  • Conduct in-depth research on workspace typologies across industries (tech, healthcare, BFSI, consulting, creative, product, F&B, etc.).
  • Map generational differences in workspace use (Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X, Boomers) : needs, behaviors, cultural cues, and spatial expectations.
  • Research neurodiverse approaches to workspace planning, sensory-sensitive design, adaptable zones, wellness and accessibility standards.
  • Identify and extract insights from published research, white papers, journals, and case studies worldwide.
  • Analyze emerging patterns in workplace behaviors, technologies, and cultural shifts that impact space design.

Studio Integration & Design Excellence

  • Translate research insights into day-to-day design practices for Zyeta’s studio teams.
  • Develop planning principles that address generational needs, neurodiverse inclusion, and hybrid work.
  • Create design strategy playbooks, zoning frameworks, space-planning archetypes, and functional furniture typologies.
  • Collaborate with the Design Excellence Cell to refine look & feel directions, material applications, and planning standards.
  • Partner with designers to embed evidence based design thinking into live projects.
  • Thought Leadership & Global Influence

  • Co-author and publish research papers, articles, and whitepapers for Zyeta on workspace design and the future of work.
  • Prepare presentations and submissions for international forums, conferences, and competitions.
  • Build Zyeta’s reputation as a global thought leader by ensuring consistent presence in academic, industry, and innovation platforms.
  • Strategic Foresight

  • Anticipate future trends in workspace design hybrid work, generational transitions, AI & tech integration, ESG, WELL & LEED standards.
  • Develop research-driven strategies to position Zyeta as an innovator in inclusive, generationally relevant, and neurodiverse design.
  • Collaborate with leadership to shape long-term workspace visioning frameworks for clients.
  • Sustainability, Well-being & Inclusive Design Research

  • Research and document sustainable workspace practices, including low-carbon materials, energy-efficient systems, and circular design strategies.
  • Explore and integrate well-being frameworks such as WELL, Fitwel, and other global health & safety standards into Zyeta’s design research.
  • Investigate inclusive design approaches, addressing neurodiverse needs, gender-sensitive spaces, accessibility, and generational requirements.
  • Develop evidence-based guidelines that embed sustainability, wellness, and inclusivity into Zyeta’s design excellence frameworks and studio practices.
  • Contribute to thought leadership papers and presentations highlighting Zyeta’s role in advancing sustainable, healthy, and inclusive work environments.
  • Qualifications & Skills

    Education

  • Bachelor’s / master’s in architecture, Interior Design, Environmental Design, or related field.
  • Additional certification in Workplace Strategy, Design Thinking, or Inclusive Design is a plus.
  • Experience

  • 5–8 years of experience in research, workplace consulting, or design strategy.
  • Exposure to publishing, academic writing, or presenting research at forums is preferred.
  • Skills

  • Strong research, analytical, and synthesis skills.
  • Ability to translate research into practical design strategies.
  • Understanding of generational workstyles, neurodiverse design approaches, and inclusive planning principles.
  • Excellent writing, communication, and presentation abilities.
  • Familiarity with workspace trends, WELL / LEED frameworks, ESG, and industry benchmarks.
  • Proficiency in tools for data analysis, visualization, and design (Excel, PowerPoint, Adobe Suite, Revit / preferred).
  • Self-starter, proactive planner and executor, go getter (who does not need constant supervision and babysitting)
  • What We Offer

  • Opportunity to shape the future of work and workspace design globally.
  • A collaborative environment where research meets real-world design execution.
  • Platforms to publish, present, and represent Zyeta on international stages.
  • Growth into leadership roles in design strategy, workplace consultancy, and thought leadership.
