[1] PROJECT ARCHITECT - ARCHITECT TEAM LEADER (KTS Phụ Trách Dự Án & KTS Trưởng Nhóm?)

The writer needs to explain these two positions because they are the positions that the Lead Architect of MODS A-D-G has experienced in many projects that presented on the website.

Project Architect

Project Architect is the one who holds the project and manages it, including communication, discussion, designing and managing the design. Depending on the size of the office and the working context, the Project Architect accorrdingly works to what extent. In the old office (Vo Trong Nghia Architects) that the writer worked for and used to take this position, it is available right behind the Architect in Charge. This detailedly means that the person doing this job has to take care of a lot of things. In terms of communication, he connects the Architect in Charge and the rest, he connects the Architect in Charge and the clients, and connects the internality with the externality. In terms of work, he often interacts with the Architect in Charge, then he returns to work with his team, with his drawings, in the sense of participating in design and design management and drawing the completion technical document. He also has to interact with the client, contractors as well as construction teams. Most savvy architects have to experience and practive these job titles, together with job quality, and time of involvement.

Architect Team Leader

The Architect Team Leader is the leader and manager of a design team. After graduating for about 5 years and accumulating continuous experiences, he can take the Team Leader position. What is the difference between the Architect Team Leader and the Project Architect just mentioned above? Team Leader refers to people management, while Project Architect refers to project management. A Team Leader may be a Project Architect at the same time, but a Project Architect may not be a Team Leader. In the old office where the writer worked as the Architect Team Leader, the position was basically right behind the Architect in Charge or the Partners - Main Associates on par with the Architect in Charge. It should be noted that the Architect Team Leader position is a recognition of ability and maturity of an architect, not necessarily the fact that there is more than 1 person in your team and you are the holder.
