Support the next generation of designers — manage the studios, workshops, and lecture spaces where creativity begins.
Who We Are
Architecture Social is a specialist recruitment consultancy with connections across London's higher education and institutional design sectors. We work with universities, colleges, and academic institutions that house architecture and design faculties and regularly need experienced Facilities Managers to oversee their specialist buildings. Our consultants understand the unique operational demands of educational environments — from workshop safety to sustainability reporting — and we keep active shortlists of facilities professionals with the right institutional experience.
What Our Clients Typically Ask For
• Facilities management experience in an educational or institutional setting
• Understanding of the specific requirements of workshop, studio, and maker-space environments
• Strong knowledge of health and safety regulations for educational premises
• Experience managing building maintenance, refurbishment projects, and facilities budgets
• Ability to coordinate with academic staff on space requirements and timetabling
• Experience with energy management, sustainability initiatives, and environmental reporting
• A collaborative, safety-conscious approach that balances the diverse needs of students and staff
If your facilities management creates safe, inspiring, and well-maintained environments for learning and making, we want to hear from you.

Registering with us ensures you are among the first candidates we consider when a university or college briefs us on a facilities management position. Educational facilities roles often come with excellent benefits including generous leave, pension schemes, and access to campus amenities, and many are filled through our network before they are publicly advertised. Your details are held in complete confidence, and we will only contact you when a genuinely relevant opportunity arises.
