Full Job Description
About the Role

The Director of Creative Resourcing is responsible for bringing intention and strategy to staffing across the studio - making sure the right people are on the right projects at the right time. Rather than reacting to ups and downs of the different projects, you'll anticipate challenges, balance competing priorities, and thoughtfully assemble teams that can do their best work.

Success in this role is not measured by how efficiently people are allocated or how tidy the spreadsheet is, but by the strength of the teams you help build and the quality of the decisions that support them.

We're looking for:

  • Strategic and forward-thinking, with the ability to see several steps ahead.
  • Empathetic and people-oriented, with strong emotional intelligence and interpersonal judgment.
  • Decisive and comfortable making recommendations when priorities compete and information is incomplete.
  • Organized and detail-oriented without losing sight of the broader strategic picture.
  • Strong communicator who can clearly articulate tradeoffs, priorities, and recommendations.
  • Appreciates that successful creative teams are built through intentional composition rather than simple availability.


Qualifications:

  • Demonstrated experience coordinating people, projects, priorities, and stakeholders in a studio environment.
  • Professional experience in creative services, interior design, architecture, studio operations, project delivery, resource management, or a related field.
  • Leadership-level presence and credibility, with the confidence to facilitate discussions and influence decisions across the studio.


Bonus Qualifications:

  • Familiarity with project management methodologies, project delivery processes, and team leadership.
  • Understanding of project financials, including budgeting, profitability, utilization, and resource planning.
  • Experience preparing proposals, contracts, scopes of work, change orders, or other project-related documentation.
  • Familiarity with project billing, revenue forecasting, and fee management.


Compensation is based on relevant experience and qualifications. Salary for this role is estimated between $125,000 to $180,000 plus benefits and bonuses.

Rapt also offers a generous relocation package for eligible candidates.

Benefits and Perks:

Generous options for medical, dental, vision insurance

Location flexibility and unlimited paid time off (PTO)

Tax-deferred savings through FSA, parking and transit allocations

401K with employer contribution

Complimentary One Medical memberships

New hire referral bonus
