Speculative Application – Architect
Lead projects with confidence and find the practice that matches your ambitions.
Who We Are
Architecture Social is a recruitment partner and community built for architects and designers. We collaborate with studios that appreciate fully qualified architects — professionals ready to steer projects, guide teams, and develop client relationships. Even when these practices are not advertising, they ask us to keep them informed about outstanding architects, so we maintain an active shortlist.
What our clients typically ask for
ARB registration or RIBA Chartered status (or international equivalent)
Three to eight years’ post-Part III experience delivering design through all RIBA stages
Proficiency in Revit or another BIM platform, plus confidence coordinating consultants and contractors
A portfolio demonstrating concept strength, technical rigour, and built-project experience
Ability to manage programmes, budgets and statutory approvals while nurturing client trust
Mentoring skills and a collaborative mindset that strengthens studio culture
If your track record shows design leadership, technical competence and a drive to elevate every brief, we want to hear from you.
