Summary Generated by Built In

Alfred Williams & Company is seeking an organized, collaborative and creative professional to support workplace design initiatives through a blend of design coordination, project management, field support and client engagement. This role helps ensure projects move efficiently from concept through installation while delivering an exceptional client experience.

The ideal candidate enjoys balancing creative problem-solving with operational execution and is comfortable collaborating with clients, vendors and cross-functional internal teams. Experience supporting healthcare environments or healthcare-focused workplace projects is especially valued.
