In this position, you will work alongside a talented team of professionals to design and deliver high-quality projects. Your responsibilities will span across a variety of project types, including built projects-ranging from schematic design through to construction administration-and unbuilt projects such as master plans, landscape master plans, and conceptual studies. Experience with project management and designing alongside interdisciplinary teams is highly desired. In your role, you will oversee and coordinate multiple projects simultaneously, and you'll work closely with campus clients, developing strong relationships and a deep understanding of their unique needs and goals.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment. You will have the opportunity to bring your creative and technical skills to the table and contribute meaningfully to the development of impactful, lasting campus landscapes.

Design chops - you've got vision, creativity, and skills. You have a strong working knowledge of popular trends in public space, resilience, green infrastructure and have an interest in detail design, including material selection, construction techniques, and planting.
Collaborative spirit - the idea of interdisciplinary teamwork gets you excited
Passion - you have a healthy dose of ambition for yourself, your team, the work (and the firm you'll come to love)
Proactive resourcefulness - you're energetic and positive about solving problems and take initiative to find a way to 'yes.' You are self-motivated and can manage your time effectively while juggling multiple projects.
Growth-orientation - you're curious and want to find greater ways to impact the world around you
Humanistic sensibility - you design for people and you generally enjoy working with others
Leadership - you're comfortable guiding teams, mentoring staff, listening and incorporating the ideas of others, and representing Sasaki to clients and the greater design community
What you'll do:
Manage internal project teams and external relationships with clients and subconsultants for a wide range of project types from master planning and conceptual design through construction documentation.
Oversee construction documentation, bidding, and construction administration.
Lead marketing and business development efforts. Bring experience in crafting proposals and interviewing for new work including building subconsultant teams, developing work plans, and writing detailed scope-of-work documents and contracts.
Develop and coordinate all facets of project design from conceptual design (sketches, illustrative graphics, 3D-Models, renderings) through construction documentation.
