We’re building places people actually want to be—hotels with personality, offices that inspire, and retail spaces that create energy.
We’re looking for a highly motivated, detail-oriented, and curious Design & Development Coordinator to join our team. This is a true entry-level role—no prior experience needed—just a strong work ethic, interest in real estate/hospitality, and a willingness to learn.

Learn Hotel Branding & Design
• Support how hotel brands come to life in real spaces (not just logos—full guest experience)
• Assist with design packages, layouts, and FF&E selections
• Help put together presentations that tell the story of a project
Be Part of Real Projects (Day One)
• Work on active hotel, office, and retail developments
• Track progress from early concept through construction
• Join site visits and see projects being built in real time
Keep Everything Organized
• Manage files, notes, and communications across teams
• Track action items and follow-ups so nothing falls through the cracks

What You Need (and Don’t Need)
You DO need:
• Strong organization and attention to detail
• A proactive, “I’ll figure it out” mindset
• Good communication skills
You DON’T need:
• Prior full-time experience
• Deep technical knowledge (we’ll teach you)
