JOB SUMMARY:
The Design Project Manager will support the Director of Project Design in the planning, coordination and execution of interior design projects across Kushner's portfolio of multifamily developments, including new construction, repositioning and renovation communities. This role is responsible for managing the day-to-day execution of the design process by coordinating external interior design firms, architects, consultants, vendors and contractors to ensure projects remain aligned with approved budgets, schedules and design standards.

While interior design concepts are developed by contracted design firms, the Design Project Manager is responsible for coordinating, tracking and facilitating the execution of those designs from initial programming through procurement, installation and project closeout.


The ideal candidate is highly organized, detail-oriented and capable of managing multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.
