About UNCOMMON Architects

A growth partner for architecture firms.

We help firms connect with the clients who commission real projects, and land better, more meaningful work. We work across North America and internationally, with firms serving residential, commercial and institutional clients.

We work with firms that want to grow with impact — architecture that improves communities, sustainability and the built environment. Our work is personal. We do not just build systems, we build relationships.

The role

Be the right hand of our clients — strategically and personally.

You will lead a small portfolio of architecture firms and become their trusted partner, helping them grow their business, build confidence, and win the projects they dream about. You'll need to understand their goals, their frustrations, and even their personality, because what we do only works when there is real connection and trust.

You will start with 2 or 3 firms while you get up to speed, and grow into the full portfolio of 4 to 6 as you take on more ownership.

01Lead 4–6 architecture clients and build genuine relationships with each founder or partner.
02Onboard new clients: interview them, get to the bottom of what they actually want, and build the strategy from there.
03Design and execute, with a hands-on approach, quarterly growth roadmaps across LinkedIn outreach, ABM, SEO, content and paid.
04Run weekly client calls to update, report, and gather the information the team needs to keep moving.
05Own outreach strategically. You decide the targeting, the angle and the message. Someone else builds the lists, handles enrichment and prepares the campaigns — you direct and supervise.
06Guide the internal delivery team, with weekly syncs to keep every task moving and every deliverable aligned to the client's goals.
07Report directly to the founder on direction, results and what needs deciding.
08Build relationships that last. Retention is the number that matters most in this role.
09Anticipate needs before clients say them, and help them think through business problems that are not strictly marketing.
10Create the space for honest conversations and long-term trust.
What we're looking for

You are not just reporting metrics.

You are someone who:

  • Cares about your clients as people.
  • Can sense when something is off and knows how to bring clarity.
  • Makes hard conversations easy, because the trust is already there.
  • Brings positive energy, even when things get messy.
  • Wants to see clients win, not just complete deliverables.

This is part strategist, part consultant, part psychologist, and part friend.

You're a fit if you

Thrive on relationships, not transactions.

  • Have 3 to 5 years in B2B marketing and client management, agency background or similar.
  • Can create processes, think strategically, and act tactically.
  • Are a natural problem-solver who goes looking for the solution.
  • Communicate with empathy, confidence and curiosity.
  • Love working with ambitious entrepreneurs and helping them grow.
  • Speak fluent English and can lead client calls confidently.
  • Bonus: experience in architecture, design, construction or real estate.
Skills you'll need

Enough depth to judge the work, guide the team, and hold the bar.

You will not be doing everything yourself, but you need to understand each area deeply enough to ensure quality and connect strategy to execution.

SEO

Solid understanding of content and technical SEO, enough to build strategies that drive visibility and inbound.

Lead generation

LinkedIn and email outreach, personalized messaging, and how enrichment and list building work even though you're not the one doing it.

ABM

Identify, prioritize and engage high-value targets strategically.

Content

A sense of storytelling and tone, and the judgment to keep everything aligned to the client's ICP and brand.

Paid

Understand how campaigns are built and optimized well enough to own the strategy, audience and offer.

Design taste

Not a designer, but you know what good looks like and how it supports positioning.

Website management

Comfortable reviewing, structuring and optimizing sites for clarity, UX and conversion — and fixing small things yourself rather than waiting.

Automation

Experience or strong curiosity with Make.com and similar tools to streamline workflows.

AI fluency

Deep, daily use of Claude to research, generate ideas and raise the quality of what we deliver.

Client & team management

Lead conversations with confidence, build relationships, and keep several projects moving at once.

In short: a strategist who connects the dots from visibility to credibility to growth, and holds the quality bar on everything delivered.

The offer

What you get, and what we need.

Compensation

$40,000 – $48,000
USD per year
  • This is a starting salary. Your compensation grows with the responsibility you take on and the goals we hit together.
  • 100% remote, flexible schedule, with 4 hours of daily overlap with US time zones.
  • 20 paid vacation days per year.
  • Culture: highly collaborative and results-driven.
  • Our #1 objective: drive business for our clients.

Requirements

  • Able to work as a contractor and invoice us legally.
  • Available full-time. This role is not compatible with other jobs or projects.
  • Strong overlap with US time zones, at least 4 hours daily.
  • Fluent English, written and spoken, and confident leading client calls.
  • Bonus: experience working with architecture, design, construction or real estate firms.
How we hire

Four steps. No black hole.

We read every application manually. Quality and authenticity matter more than speed.

1

Application

A short form and your CV. About ten minutes. We're looking for how you think, not a perfect résumé.

2

Introduction call

A conversation to get to know each other. What you've worked on, what you're looking for, how you like to work.

3

Challenge

A real client scenario. We want to see which tactics you'd reach for, in what order, and what you'd leave out.

4

Final conversation

An open discussion about values, goals and how we can grow together. Not a test.

Every application is reviewed by a person, and you'll hear back either way.

Why join us

Build something meaningful, and own it.

We're growing fast, and this is your chance to grow with us and help shape the future of UNCOMMON Architects. A key role, working closely with the founder on strategy, relationships and real impact for architecture firms. You'll have ownership, autonomy, and the freedom to make things happen.

If you want to take ownership and be part of a team shaping how architecture firms grow, you belong here.

Takes about ten minutes. We review every application manually.
