Facade and Building Jobs is not just another job board. In this article, I explain why the Facade Today community led naturally to a dedicated career platform for façade and building professionals, how it responds to real recruitment challenges, and what it can offer to both candidates and employers in our niche sector.

Performance-Based Façade Design 2026 returns to Venice this September with a programme focused on durable façades, long-term serviceability, and real building performance in use. The conference will bring together façade engineers, consultants, architects, manufacturers, and building owners for two days of technical sessions and case studies on resilience, life-cycle performance, and maintainability. Delegates can expect keynote speakers from leading international firms, in-depth presentations on performance-based design methods, and practical insights on testing and standards, with a strengthened link to ASTM and harmonised façade performance criteria.

Real-Time Façade Performance turns static LCA into a dynamic record by linking monitored envelopes, energy drift and operational carbon. Using representative panels and lightweight sensing, it helps façade professionals verify assumptions, target maintenance and align sustainability claims with what façades actually do over time.
