Effective communication and leadership skills are crucial as they often collaborate with educators, administrators, and stakeholders. Ultimately, their goal is to deliver projects that enhance learning experiences and outcomes.

How does an educational project manager typically collaborate with educators and stakeholders to ensure project success?

An Educational Project Manager works closely with teachers, administrators, and external partners to align project goals with educational needs.

  • Partner closely with project leads and studio leadership to manage scope changes, control costs and schedules, ensure quality and accuracy of documents, and support successful project delivery.
  • Oversee finances, contribute to proposals, and foster team development through clear delegation, coaching and collaboration.
The Must-Haves 
  • Bachelor’s degree in architecture or equivalent and a minimum of 10 years architectural project experience. 
  • Strong organization, communication and problem solving skills, along with the ability to balance multiple priorities in a fast-paced, team environment.

  • A collaborative, design-forward culture that values creativity, mentorship, and shared success.
  • The chance to shape stories that impact real communities.
  • Hybrid work flexibility, every-other-Friday off options, and a comprehensive benefits package (bonus plan, 401(k) with match, health/dental/vision, generous PTO).
  • A workplace deeply committed to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion – in our projects, our people, and our culture.

Join us and help bring our design vision to life—one story at a time.
Salary Range: $103,000 - $130,700 annually. Compensation DOE and location.
Studies have shown that underrepresented individuals like women; LGBTQIA+; and BIPOC, among others, are less likely to apply for jobs unless they believe they meet every single one of the qualifications in a job description or posting. Because we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive organization, we understand the best candidate may come from a non-traditional background to our field of work. We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don't believe you meet every one of the qualifications described above. Diversity makes us better.
