• Coordinate closely with design directors, local teams, consultants, and contractors to ensure design integrity, technical rigour, and timely delivery

• Advise on design adaptation for context—climate, materials, cultural authenticity, and sustainability strategies informed by regional heritage
• Ensure compliance with local regulations, building codes, and cultural brief
• Conduct regular site visits (regionally and occasionally overseas) and manage construction phase queries
• Mentor junior staff, sharing best practice in project coordination, technical detailing, and client communication

About You

• Proven track record delivering cultural buildings (e.g. museums, cultural centres) in the Middle East or similar climates
• Excellent technical coordination skills, with proficiency in Revit and strong understanding of BIM workflows
• Strong understanding of context-driven design—climate-responsive strategies like shading, passive cooling, and daylight modulation
• Confident communicator accustomed to liaising with international project teams, local authorities, and diverse stakeholders
• The right to live and work in the UK
