WHAT WE NEED...Our Interior Design team in Austin is seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead complex, full-cycle projects from initial client discovery through construction completion. The ideal candidate will combine deep technical expertise with a genuine passion for crafting spaces that are not only visually compelling but purposefully designed - spaces that serve each client's unique goals and reflect the communities they inhabit.
We value leaders who embrace the full complexity of a project - managing scope, budget, schedule, and documentation with precision while keeping the client at the center of every decision. This role calls for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, builds trust across project teams and consultant partners alike, and approaches every new challenge with both creative rigor and adaptability. With 6-10 years of professional experience and a command of the tools and technical knowledge that bring interiors to life, you will be instrumental in guiding projects - and people - forward.

- Serve as a primary client liaison to satisfy the client's goals.
- Estimate fees, determine scope of work, and prepare proposals and contracts as needed.
- Implement all phases of a design project which includes contracts, budgeting, scheduling, planning, design, documentation, and construction (including the selection and specification of furniture).

- Foster and maintain a collaborative and professional working relationship across teams.
- Develop and maintain positive relationships with consultants, contractors, and agencies.

WHAT WE EXPECT...We value people who want to immerse themselves in creativity, collaboration, being at the forefront of innovation, and approach design inquisitively and thoughtfully. We are looking for people who are:
- Interesting - We want people who can provide unique insight into our clients' problems and contribute to their solutions in unexpected ways.
