Architect Design & Competition 80-100%

Zürich has many architecture firms. One of them has commissioned us to search for them. What sets it apart from the others: it does not win competitions by chance, but because it has the right people at the right time on the right project. Anyone who joins here works closely with the management and has the opportunity to become part of it themselves in the medium term. The position is made for people who want to make a difference and do not wait to be asked to do so.

The office employs around 50 to 70 people and has made a name for itself in Zürich with demanding projects, serious competition practice, and a culture in which design quality is non-negotiable. We are now looking on behalf of the office for an architect for the early phases and acquisition.

What awaits you. ###

• Design & Competitions

You develop architectural concepts from the first idea to the submission, translate requirements into clear solutions, and help shape presentations.

• Project Development & Acquisition

You participate in the selection of competitions, support pitch documents, and take part in client meetings.

• Communication & Interfaces

You communicate design ideas internally and externally, coordinate with project management and specialist planners, and contribute to the office's positioning.

• Further Development & Market Understanding

You observe trends, reflect on competitions, and bring in new impulses.

###

What you bring with you. ###

• Requirements:
• Completed architecture studies ETH, FH or comparable.
• Several years of experience in design and in competitions.
• Strong design skills and a structured way of working.
• Strong communication skills and entrepreneurial thinking.
• Desirable:
• Experience in project development or in client contact.
• Understanding of client needs and experience with juries/authorities.
• Specialization in design, urban design and/or project development.

###

What is great about the job? ###

• A position with real design influence and development potential. Prospectively: the step into management.
• Collaboration on demanding competitions and projects.
• Flat hierarchies and close exchange with the management.
• Flexible working hours and the possibility of remote work (depending on the project).

We look forward to your application with CV, portfolio, and a short letter of motivation about yourself and your future plans.
