Working at Tengbom
At Tengbom, working life is about more than just projects and deliverables. We are convinced that growth happens best in an environment where people can thrive—both professionally and personally. Here’s what we offer to those who become part of our team.
A permissive, exploratory, and creative culture
We are a company that takes responsibility—both for developing and being developed. With open-mindedness and persistent exploration, we are constantly getting a little better and can offer roles, methods, and contexts you rarely find elsewhere. At Tengbom, you develop continuously—through project pin-ups and inspiring talks from colleagues. We also offer individual development time, which allows for participation in seminars and trainings.
A clear direction—with the freedom to shape your path
We know where we’re headed—and we make sure you do too. With clear goals and shared visions, we create a workplace where you can feel secure, while also having the space to influence and contribute to our shared journey forward. We trust your expertise and give you the freedom to find the path that best leads to the goal. With us, you always get the chance to realize your ideas!
A large network of committed colleagues—collective intelligence
Collective intelligence is our foundation. We are a multidisciplinary team with an unusually wide range of skills and specialists. We believe in the power of collaboration—and in diversity. The more perspectives, the better the architecture, simply put. By including and supporting one another, and by learning from both successes and mistakes, we develop stronger ideas and better outcomes.
What kind of projects?
We work across the full spectrum of architectural assignments: large and small, private and public, from new builds to transformations.Within Tengbom, you’ll find expertise in everything from architecture, urban planning, landscape, interiors, and project management to sustainability, accessibility, and the latest digital methodologies.
Sustainability as a guiding principle—in projects and the workplace
At Tengbom, sustainability is not an added layer—it’s a natural foundation for everything we do. That applies to our projects, but also to how we care for each other. We monitor, discuss, and act on our experiences of the work situation and work systematically to prevent unhealthy stress. Through an approach that combines the digital and the physical, we merge collaboration, creativity, and community with flexibility. Flexitime and extra half days off contribute to a healthy balance between work and leisure.
Security through collective agreements, insurance, and pensions
Working for an employer with a collective agreement gives you a solid foundation—you know the conditions follow laws and regulations. Through the agreement, you’re covered by an ITP occupational pension and several types of insurance: life insurance, work injury protection, and disability pension for long-term sick leave. We also offer supplementary parental leave compensation. If your employment ends due to redundancy, you may also receive transition support through TRR.
Benefits focused on health and well-being
You’ll receive a wellness allowance, the option of a subsidized bicycle, and discounts on wellness activities—all available in our benefits portal with many attractive offers. The most used perk? Discounted cinema tickets! Of course, we also offer free eye exams and screen glasses if needed.
