  • Monitor order schedules and installation timelines.

  • Coordinate with clients, vendors, and installers to ensure successful project execution.

  • Support project teams with documentation and follow-through.

Financial + Administrative Support

  • Track project milestones and billing triggers.

  • Support invoicing coordination and project budget awareness.

  • Help leadership monitor project health and overall workflow.

 

Qualifications

Required

  • 8+ years of experience within architecture, interior design, hospitality, construction, or commercial real estate.

  • Deep understanding of the design and construction industry.

  • Experience writing proposals, RFP responses, qualifications packages, and presentations.

  • Excellent writing, communication, and organizational skills.

  • Strong relationship-building abilities.

  • Comfortable managing multiple projects and priorities simultaneously.

  • Ability to think strategically while also handling day-to-day execution.

Highly Desired

  • Experience working in an architecture or interior design firm.

  • Familiarity with Monograph, Adobe InDesign, Microsoft Office, and CRM platforms.

  • Understanding of project phases, consultant coordination, and construction processes.

  • Existing relationships within the development, hospitality, architecture, contractor, or real estate communities.

  • Experience with FF&E procurement or project coordination.

 

Who You Are

You are organized, proactive, and naturally relationship-oriented. You enjoy connecting dots, solving problems, and helping creative teams operate at a high level.

You understand how architects and designers work. You know how to structure proposals, communicate with clients, and keep moving parts organized. You appreciate great design, but you also love systems, processes, and building relationships. Most importantly, you are excited about helping a growing, hospitality-focused studio continue to evolve.
