Architecture Recruiting

Specialized recruiting for architecture firms and design professionals - from Project Architect to Principal.

Architecture is the "A" in AEC — the discipline that sets the vision every other trade builds against. From healthcare campuses and higher education facilities to commercial towers and large-scale mixed-use developments, the firms we partner with are shaping how cities, campuses, and communities take form. Diamond Peak places the designers, project leaders, and principals behind that work — and we help architecture professionals find the firms where their careers can grow.

We work exclusively in AEC and MEP, which means our recruiters know the difference between a Job Captain and a Project Architect, read portfolios with a critical eye, and understand why healthcare experience may or may not translate to higher education work.

WHO WE WORK WITH

We partner with architecture firms of every scale - from boutique design practices to nationally ranked AIA firms. Our searches span all project types including commercial, healthcare, education, mixed-use, and civic work. We tailor every search to the firm's culture, project pipeline, and specific hiring criteria.

For Architecture Professionals

If you are an architect, designer, or firm leader thinking about your next move, you do not need a recruiter who pitches you any open job - you need one who understands your trajectory.

Licensure path matters.

Project Manager

Project leadership across commercial, industrial, and infrastructure builds — from preconstruction through closeout. PM and APM roles with top general contractors, subcontractors, and design-build firms. Local and traveling positions available.

Portfolio fit comes first.

Your search stays confidential.

Why Specialized Architecture Recruiting Matters

Most recruiting firms treat architecture like any other white-collar profession. We do not. Our recruiters spend their days exclusively in the AEC market, which means they understand the project types that define your portfolio, the firms worth your time, and the roles that will actually move your career forward.

For firms, it means no time wasted on candidates who do not understand construction documents, cannot navigate a design-build environment, or have never worked at your project scale. For candidates, it means introductions that are relevant, timely, and confidential.

  • Deep Industry Network
  • National Reach, Local Knowledge
  • Quality Over Volume.
