· Clear written and verbal communication skills to present design layouts and material samples to judicial officers and court executives, and to coordinate delivery schedules, vendors, and physical office moves.

· Position subject to FBI background check.

· Moderate travel required.

· The ability to occasionally lift up to 50 pounds and stand for periods of time. Work involves moving furniture and equipment.

Preferred

· Four or more years of specialized commercial interior design, space planning, move coordination, and FF&E specification experience, with a heavy emphasis on furniture systems.

· An associate degree in interior design, interior architecture, drafting, or a related technical field, or a bachelor’s degree in interior design, interior architecture, or architecture.

· Knowledge of government procurement policies, the U.S. Courts Design Guide, and the Guide to Judiciary Policy.
