**Work Environment**

We are looking for motivated landscape (Engineer) Architects, Urbanists and Landscape Architects to join our design team. Our team currently includes 35 architects, urban designers and landscape architects working within the field of spatial design on a wide range of projects: public space, landscape design, infrastructure works, spatial policy studies and research....

We are mainly working in Flanders, but have recently started focusing on Brussels projects as well. We combine precise spatial interventions with an integrated and inclusive approach. In this way, we incorporate broad social issues such as climate change, social polarization, resource scarcity.... as an attitude in the design process within projects. Each project is therefore the result of a close collaboration between designers, engineers and experts. Through an iterative process of sketches, calculations, research, projects are developed that are not only socially relevant, but also have a certain flexibility towards meaning and use.

Tractebel has a philosophy of flexible working hours. You are welcome in one of our office in Ghent next to Gent-Sint-Pieters station, for at least 3 days a week. On the other days you can work at home or in an office in Antwerp or Brussels, thus avoiding long travel times and balancing work and private life.
