Architectural Project Coordinator

McLean, VA | Full-Time | Hybrid

MC3 Group is looking for an Architectural Project Coordinator to support our Project Architect, General Contractor, ownership team, and broader design-build operation.

This is a hands‑on coordination and drafting role for someone who understands architectural drawings, enjoys working through project details, and wants to help move projects from design into production and construction.

The right person will help with drafting, drawing revisions, project documentation, design approvals, selections, coordination, and communication between the architectural and construction teams.

This is not primarily an administrative role. We are looking for someone who can contribute technically, stay ahead of project details, and help ensure that approved designs are translated into accurate, buildable information for the field.

We are looking for someone who understands buildings, drawings, and project coordination and who wants to grow within an integrated architecture and construction environment.

Strong candidates may come from an architecture firm, residential design practice, custom home builder, design‑build company, drafting role, or construction coordination position.

• Prepare information for project meetings and assist with follow‑up on outstanding action items.

• Support multiple active projects and help keep deadlines, deliverables, and priorities moving forward.
• Perform administrative duties as directed

• 2+ years of experience in architecture, drafting, residential design, construction documentation, or project coordination.
• Experience reading and working with architectural plans, elevations, sections, details, and specifications.

• Strong attention to detail and document accuracy.
• Strong organizational and follow‑through skills.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and competing priorities.
