  • Establish and maintain design standards and specifications across the portfolio.
  • Budget, Schedule, and Approvals
  • Manage design budgets and consultant fees; track changes and approvals.
  • Partner with construction and pre-construction on value engineering that protects the product.
  • Oversee mockups, samples, submittals, and design punch lists with the GC and trades.
  • Lead design through zoning, planning, architectural and historic review, and community design review.
  • Go-to-Market
  • Deliver design inputs for sales and marketing: floor plans, renderings, finish schedules, model residences, sales gallery, and offering plan exhibits.
  • Work with branding and marketing agencies and the sales team on the design story across collateral, digital, and broker materials.
  • Oversee buyer customization and upgrade programs; keep sales documentation consistent with what is built.
  • Carry the product from sales launch through closing and turnover.
  • Leadership
  • Build and manage an internal design team as the portfolio grows.
  • Present design recommendations to executive leadership, partners, and investors.
  • Capture lessons learned and turn them into repeatable standards.

Skills & Qualifications:

  • 12+ years in architecture, interiors, or design management, including 7+ years on the owner or developer side in luxury residential.
  • Track record delivering high-end condominium, branded residence, or club and resort residential from concept through closing.
  • Experience directing internationally recognized architects and designers.
  • Clear understanding of how design drives pricing, absorption, and buyer experience.
  • Working knowledge of construction, cost management, zoning, and offering plan requirements.
  • Exceptional taste with commercial discipline.
  • Strong presenter and negotiator with ownership, investors, and brand partners.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
