About

EMI South Africa is excited to be taking on more healthcare design work in 2022, with projects spread across southern Africa and spanning concept development through detailed design and into construction. As the office grows and invests in developing this new design focus, we are looking for an architect with experience in healthcare design who can provide additional training and assistance to our staff team.

Roughly half the world's population lacks access to essential health services, and every year millions of people die as a result of inadequate access to care. Our health-focused ministry partners are doing incredible work to change this, and it is a privilege to partner with them in bringing safe, effective, and high-quality care to the people who need it most. Healthcare design is distinct, and this specialist’s insight and expertise will enable our team to learn, develop, and grow professionally, increasing our capacity to serve our clients in new and deeper ways. 

Will you prayerfully consider joining us in designing a world of health and hope for people in southern Africa and beyond?
