About this role
CannonDesign's Central Region is seeking an experienced healthcare planner to serve as a subject matter expert on projects across their Dallas, St. Louis, and Houston offices. Working under a licensed architect, you'll lead the planning and programming phases of healthcare initiatives, from initial user group meetings through design development. Your role bridges strategy and execution: you'll translate complex client needs into actionable planning concepts, guide architectural teams toward solutions that meet owner objectives, and communicate technical ideas clearly to diverse stakeholders through presentations, graphics, and documentation.
This contract position requires at least eight years of healthcare project experience and a bachelor's degree in architecture, interior design, engineering, or a related field. You'll need strong analytical and critical thinking skills, proficiency with Revit, Microsoft Office, and Bluebeam, and the ability to work with considerable independence and ambiguity.

Beyond technical expertise, the role demands genuine client-facing capability, business judgment, and the capacity to mentor other designers—you'll occasionally contribute to proposals and help shape the firm's approach to sustainable design integration.
