    Job description

    The Associate Director of Design and Development is responsible for leading and collaborating on all aspects of the design process. While excelling as a strong communicator with a passion for solving both design and business challenges, this role will also ensure design is aligned with organizational goals, budgets and schedules.

    This role provides end -to-end design leadership — from concept development through full design documentation — ensuring that all program requirements, aesthetic goals, technical standards, and operational needs are accurately captured. The candidate oversees the design process until formal handoff to the execution/construction team, ensuring continuity, accuracy, and alignment with project objectives. The role requires strong technical proficiency and the ability to create, develop, and process full drawing sets.

    Roles and responsibilities:

    • Translate business and operational requirements into comprehensive design briefs for internal use and consultant engagement.
    • Lead internal concepting, schematic design, and development phases, producing accurate, coordinated drawing sets as needed.
    • Manage and direct external architects, designers, engineers, and consultants to ensure alignment with scope, schedule, brand standards, and functional requirements.
    • Review and refine consultant drawings, specifications, and deliverables to maintain quality and consistency.
    • Present design concepts, options, and recommendations to internal leadership and cross -functional partners.
    • Coordinate design decisions with real estate, project management, workplace, and operations to ensure feasibility and execution readiness.
    • Ensure smooth handover to the execution/construction team with complete documentation, clear design intent, and required approvals.
    • Establish and maintain design standards, guidelines, and templates for uniformity across the portfolio.
    • Oversee design -related RFPs, consultant selection, and scope definition.
    • Support value engineering and budget alignment without compromising design integrity.
    • 10 years of experience in design and development roles
    • Bachelor's degree or higher - preferably in architecture
    • Specific skills - AutoCAD, Revit, BlueBeam, Photoshop, Power Point, Smart Sheets, Power BI

    Additional desired qualifications

    • Experience in complex interior programs as well as base building design and execution
    • Knowledge of sustainability, integrated design and LEED guidelines.
    • Exceptional client facing skills
