BIG’s Barcelona office currently lists openings for a visualisation specialist, project delivery manager, design assistant, architects, façade specialists and delivery-focused roles.

The range matters more than any single post. A large practice does not buy ideas alone; it needs the capacity to represent, coordinate, detail and deliver them.

For an early-career applicant, Design Assistant offers a different entry point from senior architect. For experienced professionals, façade knowledge, Rhino and delivery show where specialist demand is concentrated.

The official listings do not publish salaries on the general page. Before applying, candidates should check responsibilities, location, work permission, language, working pattern and salary band during the process.

The fact. the vacancies are live on BIG’s official careers page. A job list can also operate as an X-ray of how a practice produces architecture.

The question

What does this list teach us about a career in architecture?

Design remains central, but it is not a single profession. Visualisation, coordination, façades and delivery can become more valuable specialisms than trying to appear competent at everything.
