Cities are shaped by the people who plan them — and senior urban designers who can balance density, movement, character and community are consistently in demand across London's most ambitious regeneration programmes.
At Architecture Social, we partner with urban design practices, masterplanning studios and multidisciplinary consultancies whose work shapes new neighbourhoods, town centres and mixed-use developments across the capital. We maintain active shortlists of senior urban designers with strong masterplanning portfolios for roles as they emerge.
What our clients typically ask for:
• Senior urban designers with strong portfolios of masterplan and regeneration projects
• Experience developing urban design frameworks, character area studies and movement strategies
• Knowledge of London Plan density guidelines, design coding and the LETI Climate Emergency Design Guide
• Ability to present proposals at public consultations and design review panels
• Skills in coordinating with transport planners, landscape architects and housing architects
• Postgraduate qualification in urban design or equivalent professional experience
• Experience securing planning permissions for major urban development schemes
If your urban design work is shaping how London grows, we want to hear from you.
