• Mange project schedules, budgets, milestones, and delivery
• Collaborate with Interior Design, Operations, Studio Leads, and project teams to support successful project outcomes
• Manage the development and coordination of technical documents, project plans, product specifications, and deliverables
• Participate in and support firmwide peer reviews and QA/QC reviews for phase deliverables
• Mentor Project Managers and Coordinators through delegated tasks and daily coordination

We’d Love to Hear from You If You Have:

• 8 years of professional experience in architecture, interior design, construction, or a related design field
• Strong experience managing projects from kickoff through completion
• Experience managing schedules, budgets, client expectations, consultant coordination, and project deliverables
• Commercial, multifamily, hospitality, corporate, adaptive reuse, mixed-use, or other related project experience
• Strong understanding of architectural and/or interior design project phases, documentation, specifications, and construction coordination
• Experience leading internal project teams and coordinating with consultants and contractors

• Strong communication, leadership, organization, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to mentor junior staff, delegate tasks clearly, and support accountability across a project team
• Experience with Revit, AutoCAD, Bluebeam, Microsoft Office, or similar project/documentation tools
• Professional licensure, registration, or certification in architecture, interior design, project management, or a related field is a plus

The Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is a confident and organized project leader who understands how to balance clients, teams, schedules, budgets, and deliverables without losing sight of the design intent.

This person should be comfortable leading meetings, managing communication, coordinating with team and all stakeholders, tracking project performance, mentoring team members, and helping improve the way projects are delivered across the firm.
