About the Job
LET’S DO THIS…
You’re a proven leader several years into your career and are looking for a more challenging opportunity. You’re dedicated to delivering projects on time and budget and are hungry for some exciting complex projects to manage. You have a lot to teach and are looking for a group eager to learn. You’ve come to the right place; at STG Design, we can make that happen.
WHAT WE NEED…
Our architecture studio in Austin is seeking an experienced Project Manager to take on full responsibility for project profitability, schedule, and budget. We need a well-rounded Project Manager with a keen ability to manage client interactions and expectations, to oversee the projection of workload and flow and all consultant coordination, and to provide critical problem-solving for both the technical and design facets of each project. In short, we want a Project Manager as remarkable as we are. We want someone who understands how to plan a project and keep the client happy. We want a PM who attacks each new challenge with the knowledge that last week’s answer doesn’t fit this week’s question; a true project team leader who is always seeking to learn more and apply what they’ve learned to make those around them better.
