Meet the Brand Behind the Buildings
Peacock Architects is an award-winning, women-led architecture firm with more than 40 years of experience designing spaces that strengthen the communities we serve. With offices in Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and North Carolina, our growing team works on educational facilities, municipal and civic buildings, commercial, retail, warehousing, multi-family, parks and recreation spaces, historic preservation, and other community-focused projects.
We believe good work begins with integrity, collaboration, and strong relationships. Our team is hands-on, supportive, and committed to delivering thoughtful design while building a firm where people can learn, contribute, and grow. As we continue expanding our reach, we are looking for someone who can help us share our story, strengthen our relationships, and identify the opportunities that will shape what comes next.
Here’s Where You Come In
Peacock Architects is seeking a creative, organized, and outgoing Marketing & Business Development Coordinator to help communicate who we are, pursue new opportunities, and strengthen our presence within the communities we serve.
This position is ideal for someone who enjoys both the creative and relationship-building sides of marketing.

We are looking for someone who can work confidently behind the scenes while also feeling comfortable representing the firm in the marketplace.
