ABOUT JAN STEINGAHS
Jan Steingahs, RIBA ARBPrincipal | Practice Group Manager, Living (US West & Mexico)| ArcadisArchitect | Global Leader | Growth StrategistVision-driven and people-focused I am a experienced global architect and business leader with over 20 years of expertise across North America, Europe, and the Middle East. Currently, I serve as Principal and Practice Group Manager, Living (US West & Mexico) at Arcadis, where I lead residential and hospitality growth strategy across the region. I lead multidisciplinary teams across six offices, driving strategic growth, operational excellence, and cross-functional collaboration in the residential and hospitality sectors.My strengths lie in developing winning strategies, scaling practices, and bridging design excellence with strategic leadership —from launching high-performance studios to securing multi-million-dollar projects. I’ve led and delivered award-winning urban, residential, hospitality, and mixed-use developments. Prior to Arcadis, I helped drive exponential growth, doubling revenues in the private sector, developing over 6,500 residential units within three years, and establishing national market strategies across Canada.With a background rooted in design excellence and a passion for mentoring future leaders, I combine a business mindset with a people first approach—to drive long-term strategy, optimizing studio performance, grow revenue, and nurture teams. My philosophy is to empower staff through macro-level management while staying hands-on in shaping transformative architecture. Balancing design, strategy, and business development, my goal is to always strive for excellence and provide clients with projects where innovation meets impact. A proud member of the RIBA and ARB, I believe in creating places that inspire, building trust with clients, and delivering future-ready spaces that serve people and communities. Whether launching a new studio, unlocking growth in new regions, or revitalizing city cores, I lead with a strategic eye and a passion for great architecture.Let’s connect if you’re interested in discussing cities, architecture, real estate development, or creating sustainable places that inspire.
