Who We’re Looking For
You are a licensed Landscape Architect with at least 5 years of experience across project coordination, design, documentation, and delivery.
You are based in Northern Utah, preferably near Salt Lake City, and can attend periodic in-person meetings and site visits.
You are SITES certified or working towards certification and have direct experience applying SITES principles in real-world projects (optional).
You’re confident leading teams, managing timelines, and holding a strategic project view.
You’re fluent in remote collaboration tools (Zoom, Google Workspace, Miro) and great at keeping communication clear and consistent.
You are experienced in Vectorworks (or similar CAD/BIM software and can learn quickly).
What You’ll Do
As a Project Manager, you’ll take the lead on delivering high-quality work across a range of civic, planning, and development projects. You’ll help guide projects from concept through construction, ensuring clarity, accountability, and thoughtful collaboration every step of the way.
Your core responsibilities will include:
- Leading project management for select civic, planning, and development projects
- Overseeing contract administration and construction
- Tracking timelines, schedules, budgets, and deliverables across all phases
- Facilitating communication with clients, consultants, and internal team members
- Reviewing technical drawings, redlines, and documentation to support QA/QC
- Supporting future team growth through collaboration, feedback, and eventually mentoring new team members.
- Working closely with the Principal/CEO to align project goals and maintain quality standards
What Makes This Role Different
- Remote-first with flexibility: Set your own schedule and balance your professional life with family, creativity, or time outdoors. We trust you to manage your time and deliver exceptional work.
- Purpose-driven projects: You’ll contribute to places that matter—parks, cultural landscapes, historic districts, and regenerative community spaces that enrich people’s lives and restore ecological health.
- Supportive, woman-led culture: Join a collaborative, tight-knit team led by a female founder who values purpose, mentorship, and personal growth. We’re here to support each other—not compete.
- Real opportunity to grow: This isn’t a dead-end PM role. You’ll gain meaningful project leadership experience, contribute to impactful work, and have the chance to grow into more responsibility as we scale.
Requirements
- Licensed Landscape Architect (Utah preferred or able to get reciprocity quickly)
- 5+ years professional experience with increasing responsibility
- Based in Northern Utah and available for occasional in-person meetings/site visits
- SITES AP Certification and project experience (Optional)
- Strong project management, contract administration, mentoring, and communication skills
- Technical design and documentation experience in AutoCAD, Adobe CS, SketchUp, etc.
What You’ll Get
- Hourly Rate: Starting at $37/hr DOE
- Flexible 30–40 hours/week
- Local remote work (must be available for meetings and site visits)
- Mentorship, leadership coaching, and professional development support
- A clear, supportive runway for long-term growth and influence
