Create the solutions that will enable a better tomorrow
We are looking for a Senior Client Advisor (Senior Bygherrerådgiver) to join our multidisciplinary team of architects, engineers, and client advisors in Arkitema. We work closely with clients across Denmark and Scandinavia, on some of Denmarks’s most complex building projects - including healthcare, education, and commercial real estate. And we are thrilled to have contributed to projects like innovative hospital developments across Denmark and major urban transformation projects such as Carlsberg City District in Copenhagen and other landmark civic developments.

Arkitema was established in 1969 making us one of Denmark's oldest architectural firms. Today, we are well positioned in Scandinavia with offices in Denmark, Norway and Sweden.

In our markets we provide wide range of competencies in our areas of expertise. We cover sectors and disciplines like healthcare, industry, transformation, landscape and residential construction.

Since 2019 Arkitema has been part of [xxxxx], one of Scandinavia’s leading engineering and consultancy companies. Together with customers, partners and colleagues, we shape a future where people and societies grow and flourish. We do that by co-creating more sustainable and beautiful solutions that improve the quality of life for people today and many generations ahead.

Your key responsibilities will be:

• Advising both public and private clients/developers
• Managing construction projects and processes from start to finish
• Leading your project team of internal architects, construction managers, engineers, and specialists, and understanding how to engage them effectively throughout the project lifecycle
• Securing stakeholder engagement – both internally and externally
• Coordinating, preparing, and optimizing the building program in accordance with the client’s goals and success criteria
• Ensuring alignment between the client’s initial visions and the completed project
• Ensuring that agreements and collaboration between the client, consultants, and contractors are clearly defined and function optimally
• Conducting risk analyses and ensuring project execution with effective management of time, budget, and quality

Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future
The first step to success in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners or customers. Developing ties with others is something you do by acting respectfully and delivering on your promises. And you never get set in your ways, but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve.

On top of that you:

• Have the ability to put yourself in the client’s position and focus on value-creating processes
• Have experience with project and/or process management
• Have experience in client advisory services within public and/or private projects
• Thrive in direct dialogue with clients and business partners
• Build trust-based collaboration with clients and other stakeholders
• Thrive in interdisciplinary collaboration
• Are a skilled communicator and can express yourself clearly and precisely, both verbally and in writing, in Danish and English
• Have experience with the Danish standard agreements and regulations (ABR, AB, and ABT) and YB (Client Advisory Services and Landscape & Construction), including advising on procurement strategies and leading contract negotiations

A place to work and so much more
At Arkitema, we create buildings and spaces that are designed to work - today and in the future.
Together with our customers, we both transform existing buildings and develop new ones, always with a strong focus on functionality, longevity, and responsible use of resources. We believe that great solutions are defined by how well they perform and how thoughtfully they respond to real needs.

When we build new, we design with purpose, efficiency, and adaptability in mind. When we work with existing structures, we unlock their potential—rethinking, upgrading, and extending their life to reduce waste and preserve value.

Our approach combines deep technical knowledge with curiosity. We constantly explore how buildings can function better, use fewer resources, and create more value for the people who use them. Sometimes this means challenging conventional choices and having the courage to prioritize transformation over replacement.

We support our customers in making sustainable decisions that balance environmental impact, functionality, and long-term value. Because true sustainability is not only about reducing footprint—it’s about creating solutions that work better and last longer.
