We are seeking a talented Project Designer to join our growing team and help shape the future of healthcare design.

Key Responsibilities

Collaborate with clients to understand their goals, vision, and functional requirements, leading programming sessions and capturing essential project parameters such as schedule, budget, and design intent.

Develop thoughtful and innovative design concepts, including test fits, space planning, schematic design, color palettes, conceptual sketches, and FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment) specifications.

Create detailed design documentation, including conceptual and design development drawings, reflective ceiling plans, finish plans and schedules, and 3D Revit views to communicate design intent effectively.

Coordinate with vendors, consultants, and contractors to ensure seamless integration of design elements throughout the project lifecycle.

Participate in construction documentation and administration phases, providing design clarifications, reviewing submittals, and conducting site visits to ensure alignment with design objectives.

Contribute to project reviews, including existing conditions surveys, millwork shop drawings, engineering documents, punch list reviews, and on-site job meetings as needed.

Stay current with industry trends, materials, and best practices to continuously enhance our design solutions.

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to present ideas effectively to both clients and team members.

Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a deadline-driven environment.
