LERCH BATES • Highlands Ranch, CO

21d • $25 - $30 • Remote

About The Position

Lerch Bates is seeking a skilled designer to develop layout solutions, produce drawings, and be a point of contact and source of information for our clients. The ideal candidate will have a bachelor’s degree in architecture or engineering, mechanical design experience, and previous experience with Revit. Lerch Bates does things differently. If you’re looking for a job that offers work-life balance, great benefits, and career development, we want to hear from you. Become an Employee-Owner One of the biggest advantages of working at Lerch Bates is that we are 100% employee-owned through our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Unlike many companies that offer only a salary and retirement plan, eligible employees receive company-funded ESOP shares at no cost to them as part of their long-term retirement benefits. As Lerch Bates grows, employee-owners share in the company's success. For many employees, the ESOP becomes one of the most valuable financial benefits of their career by helping build meaningful long-term wealth in addition to their salary and traditional 401(k). When you join Lerch Bates, you are not just building better buildings. You also have the opportunity to build your financial future alongside the company's success. About Lerch Bates: Lerch Bates (LB) is a global technical consulting firm focused on improving how buildings perform for owners, designers, and the people who use them every day. For more than 75 years we’ve partnered on some of the world’s most complex and high-profile projects. Today we provide Total Building Performance expertise that integrates Building Science and Building Flow into a unified delivery model. Our work spans design, construction, investigation, repair, rehabilitation, management, and modernization with one consistent goal: helping clients make confident, well-informed decisions in an increasingly complex built environment. We are 100% employee-owned through our ESOP. That means when the company succeeds, our employee-owners share in that success. It's more than a retirement benefit—it's an ownership mindset backed by the opportunity to build long-term financial value while helping shape the future of the company.
