Constructing Architect

BIG (Bjarke Ingels Group) is an international architectural company characterized by an entrepreneurial spirit, true teamwork across expertise areas and new ways of approaching conventional tasks. We have an informal work environment where camaraderie and collegial support are highly valued and where ambition, very high work morale and dedication to being the innovators of our field unify our staff. Our office culture is characterized by creativity, high energy, and a strong team spirit.

As our office in Barcelona is growing at a rapid pace and we have a pipeline of interesting projects, we are looking for a Constructing Architect with +5 years' experience to lead the construction of our exciting projects.

This role should oversee, support and advise the teams on technical and delivery aspects related to the development of the design, the technical excellence of the stage packages, production information, detailing, construction as well as regulatory applications and specifications.

You shall provide adequate advice to enable structural, mechanical and constructability aspects to be developed and delivered with the best quality whilst holding the bigger picture across the whole team to complete the project promptly and successfully. The role is an integral part of the building process from beginning to end and must assist, participate and convey design directions of the core design leadership in order to meet client needs, assist budget and time estimations, and in some instances act as an intermediary between the Client and the Design Team.

The Constructing Architect must contribute to the effort to ensure that the team is working effectively and keeping to schedule and budget. This involves reviewing work reports and communicating any needs and concerns to employees and leadership.

Your main responsibilities will include:

  • Liaise with clients when required to drive discussions to resolution.
  • Drive conversations and/or coordination with technical specialist and consultant teams when required to support the progress of the design.
  • Reporting to the Partner-in-Charge on design aspects and to the Managing Director on operations, risk management, contractual, and other matters.
  • Familiarize yourself with and administer project contracts.
  • Strategically design timelines and work-plans.
  • Proactively deal with risk assessment and management.
  • Support, advise, direct and educate all design processes from a technical and buildability perspective.
  • Ensure the projects maintain the highest technical and innovative levels whilst understanding the broader constraints.
  • Support the project team to develop compelling creative design scenarios.
  • Monitor and assess risk within all stages of design activity and provide proactive proposals for risk mitigation whilst upholding the core creative direction.
  • Work with the project teams to develop and encourage technical excellence.
  • Support and advise on the development of systems and procedures that encourage and promote technical excellence across the projects.
  • Review a number of projects on a regular basis to maintain excellence in technical detailing and specification and ensure the office produces robust and technically sound documentation prior to issues.
  • Promote excellence in continuing professional development and ensure the project leaders are familiar with emerging best practices to allow them to deliver technical excellence.
  • Be aware of the office's professional indemnity policy and be responsible for developing in-house technical knowledge so that all documentation can be created to the highest technical standards that minimize all reasonable risks of non-compliance to the company.
  • Actively engage with the wider industry's technical bodies and attend seminars, lectures and workshops to maintain current knowledge of emerging technologies.
  • Contribute as required to the Design Reviews.

Join us on this mission, if you have:

  • A professional degree in architecture or constructing architecture ('arquitecto técnico') and +5 years professional experience in the role.
  • Excellent communication skills, fluent in Spanish and English, spoken and written.
  • Strong organizational skills, the ability to work under pressure, meet deadlines and manage own time.
  • Willingness to take on constructive guidance in response to direction from Director/Partner.
  • Excellent level of technical competency and industry knowledge.
  • Extensive experience of technical design development, delivery and construction.
  • Clear understanding of the creative design process through all work stages.

BIG offers:

  • A young and social environment with many social events.
  • Diverse group of people with many different nationalities.
  • Salary scheme based on experience and qualifications.
  • Flexible lunch options.

Application:
Please apply using the 'Send Application' button (CV, portfolio and motivation letter). Please include a technical portfolio. We will contact you if your profile matches our requirements.

As we are excited to welcome our new colleague to our team, we are looking to fill this position as soon as possible. Interviews are conducted on an ongoing basis, and the job ad will be taken down when the right candidate has been found.
