Project Manager FB Boston or LA

Lead fast-moving restaurant and hospitality projects that combine architecture, interiors, technical problem-solving, client leadership, and real project ownership. This role is designed for an experienced PM who enjoys turning brand standards and design ideas into thoughtful, buildable environments.

Our client is seeking a technically strong, resourceful Project Manager to lead hospitality and restaurant work from early due diligence through construction and close-out. The role sits at the intersection of architecture and interior design and requires someone who can manage multiple fast-paced projects while staying close to clients, consultants, documentation, approvals, budgets, and the details that drive a successful opening.

• Broad ownership. You will manage client, team, consultant, contractor, and vendor coordination rather than owning only one slice of the process.
• Architecture + interiors. The firm specifically values experience leading both architectural and interior design projects, creating a wider design and technical scope than many PM roles.
• Branded experiential work. Projects require thoughtful interpretation of brand and client standards rather than rote application, making judgment and adaptability important.
• Technical influence. You will help resolve building-construction challenges, coordinate landlord and engineering requirements, guide documentation, and navigate approvals.
• Fast project cadence. The position is well suited to someone who enjoys managing several active projects, deadlines, budgets, and stakeholders at once.
• Visible client role. Strong client communication and organization are central to the position, giving the PM meaningful exposure and responsibility.

• Lead multiple hospitality and restaurant projects in a fast-paced environment, coordinating clients, internal teams, consultants, contractors, and vendors.
• Manage project communication, coordination, schedules, and internal and external financial budgets.
• Provide advanced technical problem-solving related to building construction and technologies.
• Coordinate landlord requirements and multidisciplinary consultants, including MEP, structural, and civil engineers.
• Guide existing-conditions site surveys plus entitlement, code, and accessibility reviews during due diligence.
• Lead design development and construction-document preparation with the project team and external partners.
• Navigate building and zoning departments to obtain project approvals.
• Perform construction-phase services and project close-out.
• Apply brand and client standards thoughtfully to project-specific needs.
• Travel as required for project responsibilities.

• Professional degree in Architecture.

• Technical coordination
• Building construction, landlord requirements, MEP, structural, and civil coordination.

  Design development, construction documents, code/accessibility review, due diligence, and site surveys.
