Reveal Design Group is an award-winning architectural lighting design firm based in Chelsea, NYC, specializing in boutique hospitality, restaurants, retail, cultural institutions, and high-end residential projects across the U.S. and internationally.

We're hiring a full-time Senior Project Manager in our Procurement Department, the in-house team that ensures our lighting designs are built exactly as intended. Our Project Managers bid, purchase, coordinate, and deliver lighting equipment for the projects we design, working closely with our design studios and construction teams from proposal through final fixture aiming.

What This Role Looks Like

You'll read architectural drawings, perform quantity take-offs, build competitive proposals, manage submittals and ship schedules, place orders, coordinate with contractors and manufacturers, track budgets, and visit job sites. You are a person who makes sure hundreds of specified lighting fixtures arrive on time, get installed correctly, and look the way our designers envisioned.

As a senior member of the team, you'll also help shape how the department runs. Working alongside the principal who leads procurement, you'll help set team assignments and improve the systems, processes, and standards we all work by. You'll have a real voice in how we bid, track, and deliver our projects, and the chance to make the whole team better at what we do.

This is a building and construction coordination role with a deep technical product component. We're open to people who arrive with different strengths. If you've managed complex builds, coordinated trades, called cues in a theater, estimated millwork packages, or run logistics for installations with many moving parts, you likely have the project skills. If you've led teams, built workflows that others rely on, or brought order to a busy operation, you likely have the leadership skills. The right person brings a solid foundation in one and the drive to grow in the other.

Ideal Previous Experience

Theatrical production/stage management, technical direction, or assistant lighting design
Construction management, millwork estimation, or trade coordination
Interior design or architecture project management
Lighting showroom, distribution, or manufacturer representative work
Supervising a team of coordinators, project managers, or production staff
Building or improving the systems, workflows, and standards a team relies on
Any role combining technical product knowledge with complex logistics under deadline pressure

A degree in architectural lighting, theatrical design, construction management, or a related field is a strong foundation, but we've seen people from a wide range of backgrounds succeed in this role.

Technical Skills

Proficiency in Bluebeam, Adobe InDesign, and advanced Microsoft Excel
Ability to read and interpret architectural and electrical drawings
Database familiarity (Oasis sales software is a plus)
Familiarity with architectural lighting fixtures, electrical installation, or lighting controls is preferred but not required if you learn quickly

Leadership Qualities

You communicate clearly and directly with teammates, designers, contractors, and manufacturers, and you adjust your approach to the audience
You give honest, constructive feedback and take it well
You stay calm and organized when priorities shift, and you help others do the same
You balance workload fairly, knowing when to step in, when to delegate, and when to let someone learn by doing
You notice when a process isn't working and bring a practical fix, not just the problem
You set a high standard for accuracy and follow-through, and you hold yourself to it first
You enjoy teaching and want to see the people around you grow
You build trust across the office, including with our design team, because procurement works best when both sides are aligned

Compensation & Benefits

Salary: $85,000–$100,000, commensurate with experience
20 days PTO per year (vacation and sick combined)
Summer Fridays (Memorial Day through Labor Day)
401(k) with 3% employer contribution
Subsidized medical, dental, and vision insurance
12 weeks paid parental leave

Location: Chelsea, Manhattan. In-office with occasional travel to project sites.
