    Job Description

    Provide strategic technology leadership to groups where design innovation demands cutting-edge infrastructure.

    Who We Are
    Architecture Social is a specialist recruitment consultancy working within the architecture, engineering, and built environment sectors. We partner with design and engineering groups operating across multiple studios and disciplines, helping them recruit technology leaders who can balance operational excellence with innovation. Our consultants understand the intersection of IT and design — from high-performance computing for 3D modelling to secure multi-site collaboration — and we are regularly entrusted with senior IT appointments.

    What Our Clients Typically Ask For
    • Extensive experience in IT leadership within multi-site, project-based organisations
    • Strategic oversight of hybrid cloud environments, cybersecurity programmes, and incident response capabilities
    • Experience managing software licensing, vendor contracts, and IT project delivery including system migrations
    • Ability to work closely with BIM and computational design teams to ensure infrastructure supports advanced modelling and rendering
    • Leadership of IT teams across multiple locations with the ability to set priorities and maintain consistent service quality
    • Commercial awareness with experience managing significant annual IT budgets and making investment decisions
    • Familiarity with the AEC sector and the specific technology requirements of design-led organisations

    If your technology leadership has empowered multidisciplinary teams to design, collaborate, and deliver at scale, we want to hear from you.

    Why Register With Architecture Social
    Senior IT roles at design and engineering groups are rare and require a leader who understands both enterprise technology and the performance demands of creative design workflows. These positions are almost always filled through our trusted network. By registering, you ensure your profile is front of mind when these opportunities arise. We handle every introduction with discretion and take the time to understand your leadership style, technical strengths, and the type of organisation where you will thrive. You will be among the first we contact when the right role emerges.

    How to Apply
    Send your CV along with a summary of your IT leadership experience. Our team will arrange a confidential conversation and ensure you are first in line for senior technology appointments across the sector.
