Architecture Director – Dallas, TX

Lead Architectural Teams and Shape Project Delivery

A growing architecture firm is seeking an Architecture Director to join its Dallas office. This role is ideal for a registered architect who has experience leading teams, managing project staffing, mentoring architectural professionals, and improving the way projects are delivered.

This is a strong opportunity for someone who enjoys leadership, organization, technical standards, staff development, and helping project teams execute at a high level.

Why This Role Stands Out

This position gives you the chance to play a major leadership role within the architecture practice. You will help guide staff, support project execution, improve internal standards, and work closely with firm leadership to make sure teams are properly staffed, trained, and supported.

Benefits may include:
  • Competitive compensation ($130k-160k)
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Life insurance
  • 401(k) plan with employer match
  • Paid vacation and holidays
  • Profit-sharing
  • Professional growth opportunities
  • Leadership role within a growing Dallas office




What You’ll Do

As an Architecture Director, you will help lead architectural operations, support project teams, and improve office-wide architectural processes.

Key responsibilities include:
  • Lead and mentor architectural staff through project execution
  • Support professional development, training, and performance feedback
  • Assist with complex project issues and technical problem-solving
  • Help recruit, interview, hire, train, and onboard new architectural staff
  • Manage project scheduling and staffing needs
  • Work with firm leadership to forecast workload and assign qualified team members
  • Help ensure project teams meet client needs and project expectations
  • Implement and oversee architectural standards and procedures
  • Support quality assurance, process improvement, and architectural best practices
  • Identify needs for new standards, procedures, or internal tools
  • Assemble task groups to research, develop, and improve project delivery methods
  • Approve timesheets and expense reports
  • Make sure staff members have the resources needed to do their work effectively




What We’re Looking For

The ideal candidate is a registered architect with strong leadership ability, technical judgment, communication skills, and experience managing architectural teams.

Qualifications include:
  • Professional degree in Architecture from a NAAB-accredited university
  • Registered Architect required
  • LEED AP preferred
  • 7+ years of professional architecture experience on commercial projects
  • Experience leading and mentoring architectural staff
  • Experience managing project schedules and project staffing
  • Experience leading project groups across architecture, interiors, and construction administration
  • K-12, Higher Education, Commercial, and Automotive project experience preferred
  • Strong communication, organization, and time-management skills
  • Ability to work well in a collaborative team environment
  • Experience with Revit, AutoCAD, Adobe products, Microsoft Office, Autodesk Construction Cloud, and VantagePoint
  • Strong technical, analytical, and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to respond well under pressure and drive quality results




Who This Is For

This opportunity is best for a registered architect who is ready to take on a broader leadership role.

The right person will be comfortable mentoring staff, managing resources, improving standards, solving complex project issues, and helping architectural teams perform at a higher level.
