We're not your average design collaborative, so we're not looking for your average Project Manager either. We define ourselves as a collaborative because this is the trait that lies at the heart of how we work... Collaboratively.
We are thinkers and doers.
We are visionary and grounded.
We are design-focused and results-oriented.
We don't believe design happens in a vacuum, nor do we believe in big reveals.
We believe the best solutions are co-authored, and that design is an iterative process.
We like dialogue and debate, and we believe everyone has a voice because there are never any bad ideas.
We put the customers at the heart of everything we create, which means:
every design is created from a place of relentless curiosity
we dive deep to inhabit the personas of our end users
we pressure test our concepts against one metric above all others: have we exceeded expectations of those who experience the spaces we create?
We're also champions for diversity as a design collaborative, drawing from all experience levels and cultural backgrounds within our team of "Bergies" - intentionally staffing project teams inclusively to represent the diverse perspectives of the world around us.
We tend to do our best work with those that feel the same way... Are you that somebody?
We are looking for a results-oriented leader based in Boston that exudes positivity, approaches work with a collaborative style with a special passion for work in restaurant, brewery & distillery projects for our national clients.
We design for the restauranteurs, brewers and spirit distillers who drive the future of innovation through the food and beverage experience. We want a project manager with limitless curiosity fueling their hunger for design to join our collaborative. Are you ready to taste the possibilities with us? Join our team in Boston.
