Position: *Archivist & Records Manager*

Robert A.M. Stern Architects is a 220-person firm of architects, interior

belief that the public is entitled to buildings that do not, by their very
being, threaten the aesthetic and cultural values of the buildings around
them. We do not believe that any one style is appropriate to every building

our work to create order out of the often chaotic present by entering into a
dialogue with the past and with the spirit of the places in which we build.
