The transition to net zero demands designers who can embed environmental performance into every decision — from massing and orientation through to material specification and operational energy strategy.

At Architecture Social, we work with architecture practices, environmental consultancies and multidisciplinary design studios leading the push toward net zero carbon buildings. Our clients consistently brief us on their need for Sustainability Designers who combine technical modelling expertise with persuasive design integration skills. We maintain active shortlists so that when these roles arise, the strongest candidates hear about them first.

What Our Clients Typically Ask For:

• Sustainability Designers experienced in whole-life carbon assessment and operational energy strategy for new-build and refurbishment projects
• Professionals skilled in thermal modelling, daylight analysis and overheating risk assessment using IES VE, Grasshopper or equivalent tools
• Candidates confident developing BREEAM and WELL strategies and coordinating certification processes
• Designers who advise on passive design measures including natural ventilation, solar shading, thermal mass utilisation and building envelope optimisation
• Individuals who benchmark designs against LETI, RIBA 2030 Climate Challenge, Part L and the Future Homes Standard
• Professionals with BREEAM AP or Assessor qualifications and a strong understanding of current UK building regulations
• Designers who prepare compelling sustainability statements for planning submissions and client presentations

If your environmental design expertise shapes buildings that perform as well as they look, we want to hear from you.
