About The Role

As Project Manager, you will lead projects from kickoff through delivery, serving as the central liaison between clients, business development, design, procurement, and distribution. You will define scope and timelines, select vendor partners, and protect budgets and margins through careful cost review.

You are a strategic, hands-on project leader who is equally comfortable with a budget spreadsheet and a room full of stakeholders. You have experience managing projects in design, architecture, hospitality, or retail, and you have built strong working relationships with architects, designers, specifiers, contractors, and internal teams alike.

You are organized and detail-oriented, and you follow through, so nothing slips through the cracks even when you are juggling multiple projects against aggressive deadlines. You protect margins without losing sight of quality or the client experience. When problems come up, you don't wait for someone else to solve them. You dig in, weigh the options, and move the project forward.

You lead through clear communication and trust. You know how to run a productive meeting, navigate conflict, negotiate effectively, and keep a team aligned and motivated. Most of all, you care about the finished result, and you take pride in seeing well-executed projects turn into purposeful, beautiful spaces.
