Director of Design Management

The Director of Design Management (DM) performs a critical role ensuring Development and Construction design requirements are established, incorporated and coordinated in the design process. The DM will work closely with Preconstruction and Development during the initial phases of a project to ensure design requirements and assumptions are established and ensure those requirements are adhered to throughout the design process. The DM will ensure consistent and robust interim design deliverables throughout the design process (SD, DD, and “GMP” or 95% CD, and IFC set of plans) and ensure that national and regional design standards are incorporated within those deliverables. Furthermore, the DM will coordinate pre-Development schedules with Development teams and ensure a smooth transition from design to execution with the Construction teams. The DM works intimately with the project architect, design teams, and Greystar development, construction and preconstruction teams to manage schedule, drawing quality and design standards. The DM’s success in their role will be measured by the completeness of the plans used to construct the project and the adherence to the established design schedules. DMs must be experienced in multifamily architecture and have extensive knowledge of building and energy codes as well as technical knowledge of building systems and be able to defend a design to code officials if necessary.
