Restoring and refurbishing historic buildings requires a rare combination of technical expertise, conservation sensitivity, and meticulous project coordination — qualities that our clients consistently seek.
Who We Are
Architecture Social partners with conservation-specialist consultancies, heritage charities, institutional estates teams, and private clients who commission complex restoration and refurbishment projects. We are regularly briefed on Project Manager roles involving listed building restorations, historic roof repairs, stone conservation programmes, and heritage-funded capital works. Our network gives us early visibility of these specialist opportunities.
What Our Clients Typically Ask For
– Experience managing heritage, conservation, or complex refurbishment projects
– Understanding of conservation philosophy, traditional building materials, and historic construction techniques
– Familiarity with listed building consent processes, conservation officer liaison, and heritage planning frameworks
– Competence administering JCT contracts adapted for conservation works
– Experience managing Heritage Lottery Fund or similar grant-funded project reporting requirements
– Strong budget management skills with the added complexity of working within listed and historic structures
– RICS or CIOB professional qualification preferred
If your career has been built around the careful stewardship of historic buildings, we want to hear from you.
