• Corporate Appointment (Owner/Developer)

• Large-Scale Integrated Resort

• Location: Bangkok, Thailand

The Company

The organisation is a noted, highly successful developer and operator of leisure and entertainment venues. It will shortly embark upon a new, ambitious, multi-phased, large-scale urban and integrated resort development in Bangkok. This will be a very long-term development most likely consisting of hotels, retail, F&B, theatre, theme park and many additional leisure & entertainment attractions. As a result, the firm will build a core, corporate team including an immediate requirement for an experienced professional to steer the Design and Master-planning function.

The Position

Reporting to the Group Head of Design & Planning, the appointed individual will be focused toward optimised space planning and customer-centric design layout proposals across the integrated resort environment. This will include luxury hotels, retail, F&B and entertainment attractions whilst balancing practical (including back-of-house) and aesthetic considerations including lighting, cooling, ventilation, public realm furniture and signage. The role will be responsible for the review of design briefs for each component whilst ensuring alignment to the overall vision of the resort. It will include planning feasibility, urban and environmental studies (traffic, pedestrian, mass tourism and similar) to understand traffic flow, circulation and space interconnectedness that will then form the master plan proposal.

The Person

Interested candidates will be architecturally-trained (Degree in Architecture or Design) and preferably underpinned by a Masters’ accreditation, complete with appropriate large-scale design and master-planning experience with demonstrable expertise relating to optimised space planning and zoning. This should include an ability to undertake detailed feasibility studies whilst collaborating with multiple project stakeholders across each component of the resort. Aside from native Thai, a strong proficiency in English is essential whilst Chinese would be advantageous (although not essential).
