• Manage 3–5 projects at once through regular site visits and project coordination
• Coordinate DOB filings, permitting, inspections, and approvals with expediters and consultants
• Report to ownership on budgets, schedules, risks, and key decisions

• Strong knowledge of existing NYC buildings, DOB requirements, and Alt-1 / Alt-2 filings
• Strong architectural and design sensibility, with an eye for layouts, detailing, and high-end finishes
