Architect | Residential & Commercial Projects

Competitive Salary + Hybrid Working, Bonus Scheme, Private Healthcare, Overseas Working & More!

Great architects tend to fall into two camps. Some are strongest in the early design stages, shaping concepts and driving projects forward. Others enjoy the technical side of architecture, coordinating teams, resolving complex details and delivering buildings on site.

A highly respected architectural practice is looking to strengthen its residential and commercial team with the addition of an Architect. With projects ranging from residential developments and mixed-use schemes to commercial and office-led projects, the role offers broad exposure across a variety of sectors, scales and stages. The team is keen to speak with Architects who enjoy taking ownership of their work, collaborating with clients and consultants, and contributing to high-quality projects from concept through to completion.

The Role

You'll work across a range of residential and commercial projects, supporting project teams through design development, technical delivery and project coordination. Depending on your experience and interests, the role can offer greater exposure to either design-led or technical work, whilst maintaining broad project involvement throughout. Working within a collaborative and well-established team, you'll have the opportunity to develop your skills, take on increasing responsibility and help deliver projects that make a meaningful contribution to the built environment.
