Careers
We believe great employees make great companies. When we talk about recruiting the best and brightest, we’re talking about people who thrive on the excitement of collaboration for high quality and innovative design, set their own goals, and work hard to achieve them. Our employees are self-motivated and are passionate about what they do and passionate about creating designs that matter.
At Design Collective, we make it a priority to recruit talented people based upon our long-term vision for the firm’s growth and how prospective employees can contribute and prosper within our culture. By taking the time to strategically fill positions with employees on a career path instead of for the immediate needs of a single project, both the firm and each employee benefit from a lasting commitment.
Design Collective is a nationally recognized Baltimore and Chicago-based architecture, planning and urban design, landscape architecture and interior design firm that offers competitive salaries, an Employee Stock-Ownership Plan (ESOP), voluntary 401K participation, above-standard company paid contributions towards medical and Rx coverage, a licensure/registration reimbursement plan, and flexible work opportunities. The firm maintains a core of well-respected public and private sector clients and a portfolio of award-winning projects in a variety of high-performing, growth-oriented market sectors.
We provide resources for continuing education, professional development programs, and networking. Employees can attend relevant professional or education classes, seminars, or conferences to advance their knowledge or obtain credits required by the State Registration Boards for maintaining current licensure or pursuing new accreditations.
In addition to outside programs, Design Collective has a well-established in-house series of educational programs. These include regular “Lunch and Learn” sessions, “Design Collective University” seminars, construction site visits, and our “First Thursday” program, where employees socialize and discuss projects, the profession, and life.
