Project Manager Decoration

At Cohabs, we create shared homes that combine thoughtful design, functionality, comfort, and sustainability.

As Project Manager Decoration, you’ll play a key role in bringing our spaces to life, from design handover and FF&E purchasing through on-site execution and final installation. Based in New York City, you’ll work closely with international teams, General Contractors, local suppliers, and installation partners to deliver high-quality homes that meet Cohabs’ design standards, timelines, and budgets.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Manage End-of-Site and Decoration / FF&E projects from design handover to final delivery, ensuring timelines, budgets, and quality standards are met.
• Coordinate end-of-site schedules and all stakeholders involved in execution, including General Contractors, subcontractors, installers, and suppliers.
• Oversee on-site execution and decoration finishing works, including carpentry, painting, furniture, curtains, lighting, and styling.
• Conduct regular site visits, identify issues early, and coordinate practical solutions to ensure quality and timely delivery.
• Coordinate suppliers and installation partners, managing orders, deliveries, lead times, and installation.
• Build and maintain a strong network of US-based suppliers, installers, furniture dealers, and second-hand furniture partners.
• Work closely with Product, Procurement, and Design teams while tracking project budgets, reviewing quotes, and flagging cost risks.
• Promote sustainable, durable, reused, and second-hand materials and furniture whenever possible.

What we’re looking for:

• 5+ years of experience in interior design, interior architecture, project management, or a similar role.
• Fluent in English, both written and spoken. French and/or Spanish are a plus.
• Strong experience managing projects independently from design through execution, including coordination with General Contractors and suppliers.
• Solid understanding of construction and interior finishing, with a strong aesthetic sensibility and attention to detail.
• Hands-on, resourceful, and solution-oriented, with the ability to adapt quickly and take ownership on site.
• Strong organizational, communication, and negotiation skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities, timelines, and budgets.
• Experience in hospitality, residential, co-living, or similar environments is a plus.
• Strong knowledge of the US market for furniture, materials, finishes, and installation suppliers is a plus.
• Familiarity with AutoCAD, SketchUp, Adobe Creative Suite, or similar tools is a plus.
• Genuine interest in sustainability, reuse, responsible materials, and people-centered design.
