You will play a key role in the design and delivery of health sector projects, contributing to and helping lead design efforts from early concept through construction. Working within Stantec’s integrated architecture and interiors practice, you will collaborate across disciplines while maintaining a strong design voice and an active presence with clients.

We are seeking a Healthcare Strategist with strong architectural understanding and a holistic approach to residential design, someone who is comfortable thinking across interiors, building design, detailing, and helping form the overall design vision.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a design leadership capacity while remaining engaged in the technical and collaborative realities of project delivery. Candidates should balance strong design thinking with an understanding of constructability, project budgets, operations, and the resident experience.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop clear design concepts supported by compelling graphics, drawings, and narratives
  • Coordinate closely with project managers, architects, interior designers, and consultants to ensure design intent is carried through all project phases
  • Support design quality, technical coordination, and documentation across SD, DD, and CD phases
  • Mentor junior staff and contribute to a collaborative, studio-based culture
  • Assist with business development efforts, including proposals, interviews, and maintaining client relationships

Qualifications

  • 15+ years or more of professional experience in interior design, with a strong portfolio of healthcare work
  • Demonstrated design leadership and a strong aesthetic sensibility informed by constructability and market realities
  • Experience working directly with clients, developers, and stakeholders
  • Solid understanding of residential building systems, codes, and detailing (interiors and/or architectural)
  • Proficiency in Revit, Adobe Creative Suite, and Microsoft PowerPoint required; visualization and 3D rendering skills preferred. Strong graphic presentation abilities are a plus.
  • Experience seeing projects through multiple phases with increasing responsibility
  • Portfolio submission required

Education and Experience

  • IIDA accreditation is preferred.
  • Bachelors Degree in Interior Design or equivalent
  • Pursuing Interior Design Licensure is preferred, licensure not required.
  • Minimum of 15 years related experience is required.
  • LEED Green Associate or LEED AP preferred.
  • Must have a valid drivers license and a clean MVR

This role offers direct exposure to developer clients, meaningful influence on design direction, and opportunities to contribute to business development and thought leadership within the multifamily sector, all within a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment.
