The ideal candidate will bring 8–15 years of architectural experience, with a strong background in Higher Education projects.

Assist with proposals, interviews, and other marketing efforts.

Provide direction, mentorship, and support to junior staff.

Help ensure projects are delivered on schedule, within budget, and to a high standard of design.

Occasionally work onsite at client locations, though the majority of the work will be performed in the firm's Orlando office.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Architecture from an accredited program.
• Significant experience with Higher Education projects.
• Strong project management, organizational, and team leadership skills.

• Ability to manage multiple priorities and work effectively in a collaborative, deadline-driven environment.
• Proficiency in Revit and Microsoft Office.

• Established firm with a great, collaborative culture.
• Hybrid flexibility: Work from home on Fridays; Monday–Thursday in the Orlando office.
• Competitive benefits package.
• Professional development opportunities.
• Reimbursement for professional licensing/renewals and annual AIA and NCARB dues.

If you're an experienced architectural Project Manager with a passion for Higher Education projects and a track record of successfully leading teams and clients, we’d love to connect with you.
