DESIGN FIRM OF THE YEAR

NOW HIRING IN CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA5 PROJECT ARCHITECTS & 1 SENIOR SPECS WRITER

If you’re looking for a job in the architecture industry, we know you

have options. Firms everywhere are looking for gifted designers

and dedicated team members. We hope that in your search for

the right place to develop new skills, contribute to world-class

projects, and participate in meaningful collaboration, you’ll

consider joining our diverse and talented team here at LS3P.

WE DO GREAT WORK. REALLY GREAT WORK.

Chances are good that if you have a particular area of interest,

LS3P has a project to match. We work at all scales, from small

renovations to comprehensive master plans, and have a diverse

area of practice areas and project types. We could list all of our

accolades and our 425 design awards here, but our award-winning

designs are only part of the story.

We design high-rise office buildings and custom homes; stadium

design and churches; airports and museums; K-12 schools and

cutting-edge research centers. Sustainability is a central part of

what we do. LS3P is a full participant in the AIA 2030 Challenge,

and we have just designed our third “Net Zero ready” school. We’re

proud of our firm’s history and a substantial project portfolio, but

we also have our eyes on a bright future.

WE THINK OUR TEAM IS AMAZING.

Our people are our greatest strength, and we never take that

for granted. We consider it an honor that so many of our team

members join LS3P and stay for decades; our President, Thom

Penney, began his career at LS3P as a high school intern.

With six offices in North and South Carolina, we have a small-firm

feel, but we offer large-firm resources. We make it easy to connect,

collaborate, and share expertise across the firm. Our clients and

colleagues are a huge part of our successful teamwork. Client

relationships are extremely important to us, which is evidenced by

the fact that a significant amount of our work is repeat business.

WE MAKE IT EASY TO ENJOY WORKING HERE.

At LS3P, we work hard to make our workplace a nice place to

be. We take care of our team members, and we want this to be a

place which helps you to thrive. Our schedule supports flexibility

and balance. We know you work hard while you’re here, and we

encourage you to enjoy the rest of your life when you’re not. Our

work week ends at noon on Fridays, and in addition to regular paid

holidays and vacation time, we close all of our offices between

Christmas and New Year’s so that our team can enjoy travel and

family time.

Like most firms, we offer a competitive base salary, health

insurance benefits, and a discretionary 401K match to help

you plan for financial security. In addition, we can boast great

office locations in Charleston, Columbia, and Greenville, SC

and Charlotte, Raleigh, and Wilmington, NC. All of our offices

are walkable, connected, and at the heart of the cities in which

we work and live. We encourage employee health and wellness

through a variety of supportive programs; we offer convenient

ways to get personal errands done; and we enjoy a casual dress

code. We like the people working next to us, and we provide

regular opportunities for team building and socializing.

In addition to these perks, we think our working environment is pretty

great. LS3P believes in transparency and open communication.

We care about your happiness, and we care about your future. We

celebrate your accomplishments. We want to hear your ideas. We

are committed to the communities we serve, and we encourage

our team members to be involved in community service and civic

engagement.

WE WANT YOU TO GROW. WE NEED YOU TO GROW.

At every stage of your career, LS3P supports your professional

development. We participate fully in the Intern Development

Program and work to provide opportunities to give you the full range

of experience you need to prepare for you future. For those taking

the ARE, we offer support in the form of time off for testing and

reimbursement for exams. We encourage lifelong learning through

in-house CEUs, Lunch and Learns, professional development

stipends, and opportunities for conference attendance. We want

to help you chart your career path, and support you and reaching

your goals.

The hiring process should be a win-win, matching talented

employees with employers who are committed to helping them

grow. At LS3P, we welcome you to get to know us. Ask

questions. Visit our website, and visit our offices. Take a look at

our projects and our process, and come talk to us about how

your skills, interests, and goals might align with our firm’s values.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO GETTING TO KNOW YOU!
