The posting

We’re seeking an experienced Project Manager to oversee architecture and engineering (A/E) projects from initial planning through design, permitting, construction administration, and final delivery.

The ideal candidate has a strong background managing projects within an architecture, engineering, or multidisciplinary design firm. This role requires hands-on ownership of project budgets, schedules, scope, deliverables, risk management, team performance, and client relationships.

Responsibilities

  • Manage A/E projects throughout the full project lifecycle, including design, permitting, construction administration, and closeout.
  • Establish and maintain project scopes, budgets, schedules, work plans, milestones, and deliverable requirements.
  • Lead multidisciplinary teams of architects, engineers, consultants, contractors, and other project stakeholders.
  • Assign responsibilities, set priorities, and ensure team members remain accountable for deadlines and deliverables.
  • Track project progress and follow up on outstanding decisions, approvals, submissions, and action items.
  • Identify scope deficiencies, design conflicts, coordination challenges, scheduling risks, and potential cost overruns.
  • Work with project teams to resolve technical, design, permitting, and construction-related issues.
  • Coordinate workflows across design development, engineering, permitting, bidding, and construction.
  • Organize design reviews, client presentations, milestone submissions, permitting activities, and construction-phase services.
  • Serve as a primary point of contact for clients, providing project updates, addressing concerns, and maintaining clear expectations.
  • Ensure project work meets contractual obligations, applicable codes, client requirements, and established quality standards.
  • Coordinate with contractors and construction teams during construction administration to address field issues and keep projects moving forward.
  • Maintain accurate project records, including meeting minutes, schedules, budgets, status reports, and other documentation.
  • Communicate project status, financial performance, risks, schedule changes, and pending decisions to leadership.
  • Identify opportunities to improve project management practices, internal workflows, documentation, and coordination between disciplines.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience managing architecture, engineering, or multidisciplinary design projects from initiation through permitting and construction.
  • Required: Previous experience working within an architecture, engineering, or multidisciplinary professional design firm.
  • Demonstrated responsibility for project scope, schedules, budgets, deliverables, risk management, and client relationships.
  • Experience directing and coordinating architects, engineers, consultants, contractors, and multidisciplinary teams.
  • Strong understanding of design workflows, permitting requirements, construction documentation, and construction-phase coordination.
  • Proven ability to manage projects across multiple phases, from design development through final delivery.
  • Ability to recognize and resolve scope discrepancies, design coordination issues, schedule risks, and budget concerns.
  • Strong client communication, relationship management, and stakeholder coordination skills.
  • Excellent organizational, analytical, problem-solving, and leadership abilities.
  • Ability to oversee multiple projects, competing priorities, budgets, and deadlines simultaneously.
  • Solid understanding of professional services contracts, project deliverables, and design-firm operations.

Important: Candidates must have direct project management and project delivery experience. Applicants whose backgrounds are primarily in project coordination, administrative support, or scheduling will not qualify.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary based on experience.
  • Health insurance options.
  • Retirement plan options.
  • Paid time off and company holidays.
  • Professional development and continuing education opportunities.
  • Opportunity to lead diverse architecture and engineering projects.
  • Collaborative, multidisciplinary professional environment.
  • Long-term career growth and advancement opportunities.
