Complex projects. Real ownership. A team that can execute.
If you're the person on a project who makes sure everything actually happens — client trust, budget discipline, team performance, on-time delivery — this role was built for you.
Perkins&Will's San Francisco studio is expanding its workplace interiors practice globally. We're a focused, 90+-person studio inside a 2,800-person award-winning global firm, which means you get real project ownership and client relationships without disappearing into a bureaucracy. The leaders who thrive here want visibility, accountability, and work they can be proud of.
What You'll Do
- Own the full project lifecycle: scope, fee, budget, schedule, client communication, and team performance
- Serve as primary client liaison — you build the relationship, you protect it
- Manage projects in Deltek, including work plans, budgets, change notices, and schedules
- Coordinate with the Operations Director and Interiors team on staffing; lead and mentor your project teams
- Identify and manage risk — client issues, technical issues — before they become problems
- Participate in marketing, business development, and client relationship cultivation
- Review deliverables for accuracy, code compliance, and consistency with the Project Delivery Manual
What We're Looking For
Required
- 10–15+ years of workplace interiors experience through all project phases
- Proven track record managing project financials, contracts, and client relationships
- Revit proficient; comfortable with standard PM software
- Strong communicator — written, verbal, and in front of clients
- LEED GA required (or willing to obtain within 6 months of hire)
- NCIDQ or registered architect preferred
- Bachelor's degree in interiors, architecture, or related field
Nice to Have (not dealbreakers)
- Rhino, Grasshopper, Enscape, or environmental analysis tools
- Living Design credentials: WELL AP, LEED AP with Specialty, BREEAM AP, Passive House, or ILFI Accreditation
What You'll Get
Salary range: $141,100–$207,300, commensurate with skills, education and experience.
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) retirement plan and paid time off
- Professional development stipend and dedicated continuing education time
- Performance-based bonuses
- Access to firmwide leadership development programs and affinity groups
