Senior Design Coordinator

Avery Hall is looking for professionals from architecture, design, and development backgrounds who are passionate about their craft, drawn to working within a design-oriented development office, and want to apply their specialized skills while gaining exposure to every stage of the building process.

The Senior Design Coordinator owns design intent across Avery Hall's mixed-use and multifamily projects, reporting to the Vice President of Development, the Director of Construction, and senior leadership. The role is engaged from conceptual design through occupancy, spanning the entire building process, but is weighted heavily toward construction administration. Once a project breaks ground, the majority of the position is spent executing on design decisions, taking part in every aspect of construction and execution required to see them fully realized.

Early in a project, this means shaping massing, unit mix, and façade and material direction alongside the design team. Once construction begins, core responsibilities shift to reviewing and resolving RFIs, submittals, shop drawings, mock-ups, and field sketches; running weekly site walks to verify design execution and finish quality; and working directly with construction and development leadership to resolve field conflicts, sequencing issues, and material substitutions without compromising the design vision.

The role also coordinates architects, interior designers, and specialty consultants to keep construction documents execution-ready, and supports punch list, model unit execution, and final turnover through closeout.

This is a hands-on role with direct project ownership and oversight. It requires regular on-site presence at active construction sites as well as in-office time at Avery Hall's headquarters in Gowanus, Brooklyn.

Avery Hall is a real estate development and architecture office committed to design excellence and long-term value creation. Rooted in Brooklyn and supported by our Charlotte office, we focus on shaping thoughtful, enduring buildings that elevate the borough's neighborhoods and contribute to a stronger, more vibrant city.

By uniting development, architecture, and hands-on project execution, we deliver projects defined by refined design, rigorous planning, and exceptional craftsmanship. Our team's expertise across acquisition, entitlement, design, construction, and asset management allows us to carry each project from vision to completion with clarity and care.

We believe that well-designed, well-built environments strengthen communities, and we seek people who want to contribute to meaningful, design-driven work in a collaborative, multidisciplinary setting.
