About Matter Real Estate

Matter Real Estate is a growing, entrepreneurial real estate advisory and project management firm based in Manhattan. 

We are on a mission to build a multi-disciplinary team of exceptional professionals – including architects, engineers and construction managers – to help our clients execute complex real estate projects. We specialize in assisting mission-oriented organizations and property owners to successfully plan and effectively build space that is highly-functional and economical. 

We believe that real estate is not just in the pro forma but exists as a place and thing – therefore, having a passion for design and construction is essential to succeed at our firm. We are seeking a Project Associate with an excellent track record of accomplishment, an exceptional work ethic and a desire to learn and grow. The ideal candidate is very organized and is self-motivated to produce very high-quality work and is driven to take on “stretch” assignments. Attention to detail is a must have. 

Required Education and Experience 

This position requires a bachelor’s degree (preferably in architecture, engineering, construction management or other real estate related field but not required) and at least one year of professional work experience . Previous work experience should demonstrate your ability to successfully manage multiple projects simultaneously. The position requires strong written and verbal communication skills and proficiency in MS Office (Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, and, particularly, Excel). Proficiency in Adobe Create Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop) is a big plus.

We welcome candidates from the design and construction industries looking to broaden their real estate expertise. You will be asked to wear many hats and be given an opportunity to gain exposure to multiple aspects of real estate.   

Summary of Responsibilities

The Project Associate will work closely with the firm’s Principal and Project Managers on a diverse portfolio of real estate projects and transactions in New York City. This role requires exceptional organizational skills, a proactive “owner’s mindset,” and a strong bias toward action. The Project Associate will be responsible for driving projects forward by anticipating needs, tracking details, and ensuring follow-through across all phases of development. Responsibilities include supporting the management of design and construction, leading clear and timely communications with clients and project stakeholders, coordinating multidisciplinary project teams, completing financial analyses, managing project plans and budgets, and attending on-site meetings and walk-throughs to ensure projects are executed efficiently and successfully.

Detailed Responsibilities

While prior experience in all facets of the role is not required, the ideal candidate brings strong foundational skills, exceptional attention to detail, persistence, and a demonstrated ability to take initiative and see tasks through to completion. As the Project Associate builds a track record of success, responsibilities will expand meaningfully—evolving from supporting task execution to independently owning and leading workstreams, managing priorities, and proactively solving problems as projects advance.
