Architect Denmark

Would you like to actively contribute to a greener future? Is sustainable design important to you? At Fastned, we offer you the opportunity to join our danish team as an Architect and play a leading role in the electric mobility revolution. Fastned is a fast-growing international company with over 400 employees in 10 countries. We currently have four people working at our brand new danish Office in the centre of Kopenhagen, that are already looking forward to meet you. 

We recently won the Architizer A+ Award in the category of Sustainable Commercial Building for our Fastned Gentbrugge station. This is the reward for our constant effort to put sustainable and people focussed design at the core of how we are building stations. Join our innovative, future-proof industry and help us build a network of modern, large-scale fast charging stations for electric cars!

Your role

As Architect Denmark at our Kopenhagen location, you will contribute to Fastned's success by designing fast charging stations with the best customer experience in mind. You will use our modular station designs to create the fast charging locations of the future at high-traffic transport hubs. Your role is essential for our interdisciplinary team to identify and exploit the full potential of a location. In your day-to-day work, you will mainly collaborate with our local team in Kopenhagen, but you will also regularly exchange ideas with the international Location Design Team.

Working as an architect at Fastned is different and a lot of fun. Can you imagine what that would be like? Take a look at our Architecture Career Hub and get to know your future team!

Your tasks

• You will create design concepts based on Fastned's modular design standards and guide your own projects through phases 1-4 of design and construction planning. 

• You will conduct site visits. To get a clear picture, you will check survey data, possible entrances and exits, how traffic flows and gather other important information.

• You will create creative design solutions for challenging locations – for an optimal charging experience for our customers.

• You will work with local authorities and many external partners and coordinate with them on a regular basis.

• You draw up complete plans for building permit procedures.

• You work very closely with your direct colleague in the location design team, as well as the expansion and construction teams to deliver high-quality construction documents within the agreed timeframe.

• You see yourself as an ambassador for Fastned and electric mobility, both internally and externally, and help everyone involved to understand and support our concept.

Who we are looking for

Most importantly, you are passionate about the energy transition and want to be part of a company that is really making a difference. You are a true team player, enjoy working independently, are not afraid of making mistakes, and are always curious and willing to learn. You already have experience in the design of public spaces, infrastructure or site development, or would like to develop your skills in these areas.

You also have the following:

• Ideally 4+ years of experience as an architect

• You are familiar navigating different stakeholders and are a strong communicator

• You are familiar with approval procedures in Denmark and can confidently discuss projects with local authorities.

• You speak Danish at a (near) native level and English on a business proficient level.

• You have previous experience with Revit.

We work hard to change the world, but we don't forget to recognise & celebrate our successes, big and small. We focus on work-life balance, provide genuine work flexibility, and have family-friendly policies in place. Electric mobility is new territory for you? Don’t worry! As part of your onboarding, you will participate in a series of exciting workshops where you will learn everything about our industry and fast-charging infrastructure.
