of the company: An established architecture and design practice with a broad portfolio across commercial, corporate, residential, industrial, and institutional work. The team is stable and has grown steadily over the years, with a strong bench of in-house designers and technical staff.

Why is this role open: Their office interior fit-out and retrofit work has picked up over the past while, both for private clients and public-sector ones. They have enough of these projects lined up that they need another project manager to take on small to mid-sized projects and keep things moving.

Responsibilities:

• Run office interior fit-out and retrofit projects from design development through permit, tendering, and construction administration.
• Work directly in Revit. You will be in the drawings yourself, not just overseeing them.
• Act as the client-facing lead on your projects and coordinate closely with contractors.
• Work alongside the in-house design team, coordinating on materials, furniture, and layout while you own the drawing set and the technical delivery.
• Prepare permit and tender documentation and make permit applications.
• Supervise one to three staff on a given project.
• Manage the project budget. Track the hours, check burn rate with accounting, and report progress periodically.
• Carry a couple of projects at once depending on their size. You would start with one and scale up as you settle in.

Must-haves:

• Around 10 years of experience in interior design, with a focus on interior fit-out or retrofit, or comparable technical project delivery.
• Strong Revit skills.
• Solid technical grounding, including detailing, building envelope basics, and assembling a full set for permit and tender.
• Comfortable running a project end to end and dealing directly with clients and contractors.
• A technical interior design background with strong architectural coordination, so you are at home working alongside base-building elements like slabs, ductwork, and fire separations.
• Strong written and oral communication.

Nice-to-haves:

• Experience supervising junior staff.
• Exposure to government projects.
• ARIDO registration or NCIDQ certification.

Work style: In office, four days per week minimum. Five is welcome.

Compensation: Base salary in the range of $80,000 to $95,000, depending on experience.
