We’re looking for an Architect

Full-time project-based contract with the possibility of extension

Based at La Cabra, Nordhavn

La Cabra

At La Cabra, architecture is a key part of how we shape and express our brand.

We’re looking for a new architect to join our small, ambitious team in Nordhavn.

You’ll play a central role in the design and technical development of La Cabra’s spaces—both in Denmark and internationally. While your main tasks will focus on project development and detailing, the role will naturally adapt to your skills and interests. Whether it’s concept design, project management, or site coordination, we value curiosity, initiative, and a hands-on mindset.

Key responsibilities

  • Deliver projects within the framework of existing architectural standards and the aesthetic direction set by La Cabra

  • Collaborate closely with team members to translate the company’s design DNA into distinctive retail environments

  • Manage your own project deliverables and maintain clear communication with external partners

  • Tackle technical challenges and propose practical, well-founded solutions

We imagine you

  • Have a few years of professional experience and a solid understanding of construction

  • Are confident with construction drawings and project management

  • Are proactive and comfortable taking the lead—communicating directly with partners, suppliers, and contractors

  • Are skilled in Rhino (essential)

  • Have a strong eye for aesthetics and detail

  • Have knowledge of sustainable building materials

  • Can work independently but enjoy being part of a close-knit team

The start date depends on the kick-off of two major projects—one in Denmark and one in the US—and is expected to be around August 1st.

La Cabra is a modern coffee and bakery company that began its journey in Aarhus, Denmark in 2012. What started as a small shop outside the city center quickly transformed into a dedicated team aiming to bring new and exciting taste experiences to audiences worldwide. Over the past few years, we have expanded our coffee horizons, moving to a larger roastery in Copenhagen and opening our first international locations. Today La Cabra consists of roasteries in both Copenhagen and New York, bakeries in Aarhus, Thailand, Oman and New York, as well as cafes and wholesale partners worldwide, and a webshop that ships our products to more than 50 countries.
