Kent State’s Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative is hiring a Director of Design Entrepreneurship & Inclusion. With support from the Cleveland Foundation, the CUDC created this new leadership position to foster the development of new design firms and expand the diversity of design practice in Northeast Ohio.

We’re looking for someone who can cultivate a national network of Black and Latinx design practitioners and firms and assist local design firms, developers, and organizations in building diverse teams for design and development projects in Greater Cleveland. The new Director of Design Entrepreneurship & Inclusion will also provide coaching and technical assistance for designers looking to start their own firms.

This is an opportunity to radically shift the nature of community design practice and open up the design fields to new voices and ideas. For more information and to apply, please visit Jobs.Kent.edu
