Job Description
Speculative Application – Associate Architect
Lead teams, shape strategy and help studios grow.
Who We Are
Architecture Social is a recruitment partner and community dedicated to architects and designers. We collaborate with practices that depend on Associates to translate vision into strategy, guide project delivery and nurture client relationships. Even when these studios aren’t publicly hiring, they ask us to keep them informed about outstanding Associate-level talent—so we maintain an active shortlist.
What our clients typically ask for
ARB registration or RIBA Chartered status, with around eight to twelve years’ post-Part III experience
A portfolio showcasing built work that marries design quality with commercial success
Proven ability to steer multiple projects through all RIBA stages, balancing creativity, programme and budget
Leadership skills that mentor teams, foster collaboration and uphold studio culture
Confident business development: writing bids, pitching to clients and expanding key accounts
Fluency in Revit or another BIM platform, plus the know-how to coordinate consultants and contractors
If your track record shows design leadership, delivery expertise and a talent for developing people and projects, we want to hear from you.
Why Register With Architecture Social
Early access to opportunities is standard—many practices brief us before roles reach the open market. We align your sector interests, leadership style and career goals with the right environment, then support you with salary benchmarks, profile feedback and a discreet recruitment process that keeps you in control. Inside the Architecture Social platform you can also join peer forums, attend CPD-style webinars and tap into practical career tools.
How to Apply
If you spot a live vacancy that fits, apply through the listing and we’ll champion your candidacy. If nothing suits today, submit a speculative application here. Your profile joins our Associate-level talent pool, and we’ll contact you the moment the ideal opportunity appears.
