Job description

NJA Architecture is a design practice founded on the ideas that Architecture can serve as a connection between culture, people, and place and that its surroundings have a positive effect on people’s lives. The firm’s work is diverse with wineries, breweries, cultural and civic projects, multi-family and multi-use, museums and exhibition design, places of worship, urban planning, and interior design.

The office operates as an open studio environment that allows for creative, collaborative, and progressive ideas to flow freely.

• Ability to demonstrate deep knowledge and comprehension of all phases of project design from pre-design through construction administration.
• A strong team member with a passion to manage projects with high expectations for design excellence and client satisfaction.
• Significant experience coordinating in-house team production as well as coordinating directly with clients, builders, and consultant teams.
• Solid track record of project delivery success.

• Strong organizational skills

Great to have

What can you expect from us?

• A creative work environment with colleagues who are collaborative, creative, and challenging.
• Opportunity to grow professionally with a wide range of excellent projects.
• In addition to a dynamic and creative culture, NJA provides a generous benefits package that includes competitive paid time off, paid holidays, health plan, 401k 6% match, bonuses, profit-sharing plans for qualified positions, and more.
