About the role

Perkins Eastman is seeking a Library Specialist to join our Firmwide College & University and Civic & Cultural practices in Boston. The role leads from early strategy through design, shaping how academic and public libraries are planned, programmed, and built for future learners and communities. The position requires 7–15 years of library planning or design experience with a track record of leading projects from programming through design, and strong stakeholder engagement skills.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
